Message from the President

Our Country is experiencing deep growing pains, and with that, deep shifts in perspective and expectations. I believe this requires each of us to come with compassion and critical thinking as we determine what our next evolution will bring. Having previously served as a Police dispatcher, I am inspired to collaborate with this amazing group of educators, law enforcement officers, and mental health professionals in the creation of TLC, Inc. Our team came with determined, pioneering hearts and minds to offer training, consulting and cutting-edge behavioral science methodologies to Law Enforcement agencies and the communities they serve. We look forward to engaging with you!
