The Commander: A Podcast with Dr. Chris Jones

Dr. Chris Jones envisions this podcast as a resource for law enforcement officers and the community members they serve. He'll address and feature people from all walks of life to help us understand how we can bridge the gap between law enforcement and their communities. You will hear from a variety of people with very diverse backgrounds, areas of expertise, and experiences. The ultimate goal is to help police officers, sheriff's deputies, corrections officers, security personnel, state and federal investigators, and everyone affected by the aforementioned to do their jobs more effectively, safely, and in a manner that community members will want to rally behind them.
