One of our highlights from 2024 was collaborating with Clark Atlanta University, Howard University, and Southern University and A&M College- Baton Rouge to learn what's influencing students' decisions about career planning, specifically their views on entering a career in policing. These focus groups helped ASPIRE better understand students' career aspirations and attitudes toward policing jobs. We look forward to continuing these conversations with students in 2025! #ASPIRE #ClarkAtlantaUniversity #HowardUniversity #SouthernUniversity #HBCU #DiversityinLawEnforcement
