years have been particularly
challenging for American policing.

finally starting to turn a corner, Chuck Wexler, Executive director of PERF, via NBC.

officers, which resulted in slower response times.
Chuck Wexler, executive director of PERF, warns that many police departments are still struggling to recruit and retain officers.
According to Wexler, law enforcement , "isn't out of the woods yet.".

benefits, many police departments have chosen to
change application requirements to increase hiring
