Often our fellowship applicants say they feel like they’re alone in their pursuit of a more equitable law enforcement system. But that’s not the case. New Blue is dedicated to creating a coalition of forward-thinking police leaders who support each other. Whether it’s asking for help leading a difficult conversation with a patrol unit or celebrating the promotion of a peer, the New Blue Fellowship exists to create connections.
⠀
Our Fellowship curriculum is designed to create a new generation of equity-minded decision-makers to reimagine the Law Enforcement system. Our Fellows learn from community members and subject area experts to build their understanding of inequity and injustice from every angle.
⠀
Several barriers prevent low-income, BIPOC, and female officers from advancing their careers in law enforcement. Education shouldn’t be one of them. After successful completion of their program, our fellows are awarded a scholarship that they can use toward past, current, or future educational expenses.
