Kwesi sits down with Toronto Police Officer Dale Swift, to discuss policing communities and bridging the gap. It is no secret that policing isn’t the most popular career choice these days. From being unfairly and broadly painted as bad apples, to being attacked and insulted, to officers opting for early retirement due to stress and mental health issues all over North America, it is no wonder that fewer people are choosing this as a job. However, being a former police officer myself, I know the rewards of doing the job. It is not just about saving lives. Police officers help communities, heal families, and give people hope. That is exactly what my guest on the RISE podcast, Toronto Police Officer Dale Swift, is doing. From his empowering and vulnerable posts on his popular Instagram page (tpswiftd), to his work with not only his city, but the black community, he is an officer that is not only doing the badge proud, but truly making a difference in his city. #cop4unity #cop4community Stay connected with Dale, an officer whose mantra is BE THE DIFFERENCE, here: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tpswiftd/?hl=en Twitter: https://twitter.com/tpswiftd?lang=en Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dale-swift-16645292/?originalSubdomain=ca
