The 30×30 Initiative is a national effort designed to advance the representation of women in law enforcement. The goal is to have women make up 30% of police recruits by 2030, a significant increase from the current 12% national average. The initiative focuses on both recruitment and retention of women officers, as well as building inclusive cultures within police departments. By joining this initiative, law enforcement agencies commit to creating a more diverse and effective workforce that better reflects the communities they serve.
Why 30x30 is Important
For Arizona's Communities
Arizona’s population is incredibly diverse, and a police force that reflects this diversity is essential for community trust and public safety. Women bring unique strengths to law enforcement, including improved de-escalation tactics and relationship-building skills. Increasing the representation of women in Arizona’s law enforcement agencies will not only make the force more inclusive, but also enhance its ability to serve and protect all communities across the state.
