The 30×30 Initiative is a coalition of police leaders, researchers, policymakers and professional organizations committed to building a stronger, more representative law enforcement workforce. By partnering with over 400 agencies and informing state-level legislative progress, we are addressing barriers that prevent qualified women from joining, thriving and remaining in the profession while leveraging the unique strengths they bring.
Grounded in empirical research and informed by the lived experiences of more than a thousand women officers, 30×30 provides agencies with practical tools, technical assistance and guidance to improve candidate pipelines, support officer well-being and address women’s specific needs, prevent and respond to sexual harassment, and modernize policies and practices. Our approach helps agencies address staffing challenges, strengthen workplace culture, and ensure officers’ health and safety needs are met.
30×30 is driving measurable progress, including increasing the representation of women in recruit classes, expanding outreach and recruitment efforts, improving hiring and assessment processes, providing better support and flexibility for parents and caregivers, and enhancing health and wellness resources. Our goal is to help agencies build healthier and more effective policing workforces that better reflect and serve communities.
