Alaska's Village Public Safety Officer (VPSO) program is an innovative and long-standing initiative providing essential public safety services in rural communities. Overseen by the Department of Public Safety but run locally through grants awarded to regional organizations, VPSOs are first responders in rural Alaska, trained in law enforcement, search and rescue, fire safety and emergency response. Join NCJA Program Manager Jessica Grisler and VPSO Division Director James Hoelscher to hear firsthand insights on the unique challenges and rewards of this critical public safety role.
