Listen to this fascinating and uplifting conversation with Sheriff Swanson where we talk about his personal story but also about the challenges facing police officers today and how he and his department are facing them.
We also discuss issues affecting the community such as drugs, mental health, guns and jails. It is in the jails that Chris is championing the I.G.N.I.T.E. program to help give inmates skills and qualifications.
Being a sheriff is more than enough for many but Chris also runs Swanson leadership training.
