Police chiefs offer guides to returning combat vets p1 - Military Transition - Military Times EDGE
Veterans who work in law enforcement — or want to — can find advice for transitioning from combat to police jobs in a new guide from the International Association of Chiefs of Police.
The Veteran’s Guide contains tips, checklists and resources to help law enforcement officers returning from combat deployments, and suggestions for those seeking a career in law enforcement. IACP has also put out a guide for law enforcement leaders.
These guides were developed in partnership with the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Justice Programs, Bureau of Justice Assistance, and Applied Research Associates Inc., Klein Associates Division.
