WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO

Reimagine Policing

Policing is at a crossroads. Departments are struggling, public trust is waning and leadership often falls short when it matters most.

The question isn’t whether law enforcement needs to change—it’s how we guide that change in a way that strengthens the relationship between police and the community for generations to come.

Policing Is On Thin Ice.

Can We Build a Path to Community Trust and Organizational Integrity?

On Thin Ice book by Jeff Wenninger

Fractured by a corrosive police culture, headline-grabbing failures, and heartbreaking breaches of trust, On Thin Ice uncovers the fractures that run deep and can no longer be ignored.

But within those cracks lies an opportunity: a chance to rebuild, to move beyond conflict, and to create a optimistic future rooted in research and empirical-based solutions.

Are you ready to explore a bold new vision of what policing can be?

“This book captures the realities of policing that so many officers across the country experience every day. It clearly highlights the urgent need for a new era of thoughtful, accountable law enforcement.”

“Riveting accounts of life-or-death encounters, along with powerful reflections on Ferguson, Uvalde, and other pivotal moments, offer an inside look at law enforcement that is unforgettable and impactful.”

“An intelligent and insightful call for a new vision of law enforcement in the United States… Jeff’s combination of firsthand experience in the cauldron that is LA, with his unwavering integrity, provides a much-needed reality check and a genuine sense of responsibility to this crucial discussion.”

“The inclusion of international perspectives and insights from outside experts strengthens Jeff’s compelling argument and broadens the conversation in a meaningful way.”
