The City Of Henderson Police Department, NV
You Can Be Chief Too!
Routinely ranked as one of the top ten safest cities in America, the City of Henderson, Nevada is located 7 miles from the Las Vegas Strip and 1 mile from the Lake Mead Recreation Area. One of the reasons for the safest city ranking is the men and women that make up the City of Henderson Police Department.
Looking to evolve with the changing dynamics that makes the City of Henderson a premier community, City leaders sought a progressive Chief of Police to mold and build the Police Department for the future. Dr. LaTesha Watson was selected and appointed to fulfil that role in November of 2017. Listed by IACP as a Top 40 under 40 Emerging Law Enforcement Executives in 2016, Chief Watson has been actively working on shifting the culture by fostering a department that recognizes everyone’s potential, whether sworn or non-sworn, male or female, and putting an emphasis on mentoring and encouraging women who want to move through the ranks. Under Chief Watson’s leadership, the Henderson Police Department is creating a culture that better reflects and represents the community it serves.
