We welcomed new Freeport Police Chief Frausto as the speaker at today’s meeting. Thank you for sharing your story, answering our many questions, and talking to the club about data-driven policing strategies being utilized under your leadership.

Did you know less than 1% of all Police Chiefs across the country are women? We are fortunate in Freeport 🥨 to be part of the positive side of that statistic!
