Why the Network Exists
Community Engagement professionals need a place to work through the work.
Training, conferences, research, and professional programs can introduce valuable knowledge and approaches. The harder part often begins when practitioners return to their agencies and have to figure out what those ideas mean for their programs, units, resources, leadership, and communities.
The CEO Practitioner Network exists for that next step.
Bring what you learned at a national conference, federal training, state POST academy, university program, webinar, or agency workshop. The Network helps you translate it for your unit, your resources, and the communities you serve.
Members can bring real programs, engagement plans, proposals, messages, measurement questions, leadership challenges, and works in progress into a professional environment designed for practitioner problem-solving.
Bring what you're building.
Bring what you're struggling with.
Bring what you learned.
Then roll up your sleeves.
This is not simply where Community Engagement professionals meet. It is where Community Engagement work gets better.
This is not another broad law enforcement networking group. It is a focused professional community for the people responsible for Community Engagement.
Who It Serves
Built for the professionals responsible for connection, trust, and community partnership.
Titles vary from agency to agency. The responsibility is often the same.
The CEO Practitioner Network is designed for law enforcement professionals whose roles include Community Engagement, community relations, outreach, partnerships, crime prevention, youth engagement, neighborhood engagement, public trust, and related leadership responsibilities.
In our name, CEO stands for Community Engagement Officer. Because agencies use different titles for this work, the Network welcomes professionals serving in Community Engagement and related roles.
- Community Engagement Officers
- Community Relations Officers
- Crime Prevention Officers
- Neighborhood Engagement Officers
- Youth Engagement Officers
- Community Outreach Professionals
- Community Engagement Supervisors
- Unit Leaders
- Command Staff responsible for Community Engagement strategy
- Chiefs and agency leaders supporting Community Engagement work
If your role helps connect the agency and the community, this Network was built with your work in mind.
