E13: Community Engagement and the Challenge of Perception. An interview with Retired Sgt Jason Lehaman.

This is Episode 13 of @lets_grab_a_cup podcast. Community Engagement and the Challenge of Perception. An interview with Retired Sgt Jason Lehman.

Knowing someone for who they were and accepting them as they change is a challenge. With Law Enforcement in general, change is inevitable yet communities across the country continue to struggle with accepting police officers as humans who want to develop positive relationships with the community. This episode, I sit down with Retired Sgt Jason Lehman. Jason has been recognized as the National Expert on Community Policing by LEXIPOL (a nation-wide training institute) and Jason's goal is to provide training to law enforcement officers across the country on the ability to affect change within communities by "getting 2% better every day."

Jason has dealt with his own challenges and his own story and this episode explores that journey.

Each of us should want to get better every day, and yet can we accept those around us who are trying to change for the better.

I appreciate Jason for taking time to sit down and tell his story. If you want to find Jason, you can find him on Instagram @jasonlehman64 or @teamwysm and also at www.wysm.org.
