Assistant Chief Lynette Falzone (Fort Lauderdale Police Department / NAWLEE First Vice President) and Officer Laurenia Fahie (Organizational Wellness Strategist & Licensed Mental Health Clinician) share practical, low-cost strategies agencies can implement immediately, address barriers like stigma, confidentiality, and access, and reframe wellness as an operational readiness necessity.

Protect Your Brand: Boundaries, Credibility & Courage for Women in Policing

A NAWLEE webinar preview for the 2026 Conference

Los Angeles • April 13–16

If you’ve ever felt like you had to “read the room” before you could truly be yourself—this conversation is for you. In this NAWLEE webinar, high-level women leaders in policing break down how to protect your credibility, reputation, and leadership brand in environments that often scrutinize women differently. You’ll hear real stories and practical guidance on authenticity without “performing,” speaking up without feeling like you have to prove yourself daily, setting boundaries that protect your time and energy, and making tough decisions without compromising your values. Featuring Deputy Chief Sheree Thomas (Omaha PD), Chief Ramona Washington (University of North Texas PD), Commissioner Tanya Meisenholder (NYU Policing Project / 30x30), and Chief Cheryl Victorian (Waco PD), this is a powerful preview of the deeper session coming to the 2026 NAWLEE Conference—designed to help you lead with integrity, confidence, and respect at every rank.

Officer-Involved Stalking: The Conversation We Can’t Avoid

When the perpetrator—or the victim—is one of our own, policy, credibility, and safety are on the line.

What happens when stalking isn’t “just another case”—but involves someone wearing the badge? In this powerful NAWLEE webinar, national experts from SPARC and OVW LEAC unpack the hidden realities of officer-involved stalking—whether the officer is the perpetrator or the victim. You’ll learn how access to law enforcement tools, reputation dynamics, internal culture, and flawed policies can silence victims, protect offenders, and undermine public trust. From recognizing nuanced stalking behaviors (beyond the stereotypes) to building trauma-informed policies that protect officers without isolating them, this session challenges agencies to confront hard truths and strengthen their response. If you care about officer wellness, accountability, and organizational integrity, this is a conversation your department cannot afford to miss.

Changing the Culture: Addressing Officer-Perpetrated Domestic Violence

Policy. Accountability. Prevention. Leadership.

Domestic violence in law enforcement families is not a “family matter.” It is a crime—and a culture issue. In this powerful NAWLEE and LEAC webinar, Deputy Chief Doy Davis (Ret.) delivers an unfiltered, evidence-based discussion on officer-perpetrated domestic violence and the systemic failures that allow it to continue. From outdated policies and weak enforcement to hiring gaps, early warning systems, internal investigations, and lethality assessments, this session challenges agencies to move beyond silence and denial. You’ll hear real case examples, legal implications (including Lautenberg and Garrity), and actionable solvability factors that can prevent tragedy, protect survivors, and preserve community trust. This is a critical conversation for chiefs, supervisors, IA, prosecutors, dispatchers, advocates, and anyone committed to officer wellness and ethical policing.

Preparing for Safe Elections: Law Enforcement’s Role in Protecting Democracy

Proactive planning, partnership, and public trust in today’s evolving election environment

In today’s changing election environment, law enforcement plays a vital role in protecting both public safety and democratic integrity. In this NAWLEE webinar, leaders from States United Democracy Center, the National Policing Institute, and 21CP join experienced chiefs and executives to discuss emerging election-related threats, “gray zone” intimidation, and the growing pressure on election officials and poll workers. From intelligence sharing and mutual aid planning to officer training, de-escalation, and strategic communication, this session offers practical, field-tested guidance for agencies of all sizes. Whether you serve in a small community or a major metropolitan area, this conversation emphasizes one clear message: preparation must begin now. Learn how to strengthen partnerships, safeguard voters, support election workers, and ensure your agency is ready to protect both public safety and the democratic process.
