Deputy Chief Donald Reid
Hopewell Police Department, Hopewell, VA
Nick helped transform our community. Before implementing this strategy, our city struggled with frequent surges of violence that induced a lot of fear in our community. However, through a combined community effort we were able to see remarkable results, reducing homicide by 71%. Our program's success is a testament to Nick's consulting.
