Seven Members of the Evanston Police Department Selected to Participate in the New Blue Leadership Fellowship

EVANSTON, IL - On January 27, 2022 seven members of the Evanston Police Department joined other law enforcement professionals from across the country at a virtual kickoff event for the New Blue Leadership Fellowship Program. New Blue is a non-profit organization focused on police reform from within. Through relationships with local community partners, New Blue was able to identify several female department members who had marked experience with community outreach. 

After going through an application and interview process, the seven members selected were Deputy Chief Melissa Sacluti, Sergeant Tosha Wilson, Sergeant Francesca Henderson, Officer Enjoli Daley, Detective Nina Griffith, Officer Jacqueline Herrera, and Detective Amanda Wright.

Supporting the 30x30 Initiative, a widespread effort focused on increasing women in policing to 30% by 2030, the founding cohort of the Leadership Fellowship is composed of all female law enforcement professionals. The New Blue Leadership Fellowship is a year-long commitment where participants will discuss various challenges and barriers with law enforcement and identify solutions to facilitate reform from within organizations, and further improve relationships in the community. 

The Evanston Police Department is extremely proud of our members and their willingness to represent the department in this new and exciting endeavor.
