30Forward is a Canadian initiative dedicated to advancing the representation, retention, and overall experiences of women in policing.

Join us as Inspector Valerie Gates and Inspector Andrea Torrie explore the important work being done to move beyond simply recruiting more women into policing and toward building organizations where women can thrive, lead, and enjoy long, successful careers.
