Dialogue on Race

Law Enforcement Issue Group

Chairperson: Wornie Reed wornie@vt.edu

The primary focus areas for the Dialogue on Race Law Enforcement Issue Group are eliminating racial profiling, achieving law enforcement employee hiring that resembles the county’s racial makeup and supporting community policing efforts. ​This work takes time, persistence and consistency of purpose.
