À propos de cet audio

In this episode of License to Operate, hosts Kanoya Ali and Peter Cunningham sit down with former Chicago Police Sergeant Vivian Williams about her transformative 30-year career serving the same South Side community where she lived and raised her children. Vivian shares her philosophy of policing with dignity, the hidden trauma affecting officers, and how authentic community relationships can break cycles of violence. From paying a family's rent to prevent eviction to facilitating historic peace treaties between rival gangs, Williams demonstrates what community policing can look like when officers truly care. She discusses the evolution of police training post-George Floyd, the mental health crisis among law enforcement, and her current work with Chicago CRED helping young people choose different paths.
