Petition to Stop Gender Inequality in Law Enforcement- Women Are The Change We Need!
Final supporters
Women officers provide many things that men officers struggle to, such as, providing support for victims specifically women and adolescents, ability to de-escalate situations with strong communication skills and provide a unique perspective. With women seen as more compassionate and attentive, and their avoidance of physical force, the public view of the police force could shift positively.

I have spent this week drafting formal inquiries to the regional police commissioner regarding current hiring quotas for female officers. I am awaiting a response to schedule a consultation with their internal recruitment committee.

The growth of this petition has reached a level that allows us to move forward with formal requests for meetings with oversight committees. We are currently drafting the correspondence required to initiate these discussions and ensure our specific policy recommendations are presented to the relevant decision makers.

Why is this even still an issue?? Women do the job just as well as anyone else. Stop holding them back.
