North Carolina has weathered significant challenges in recent years—from devastating hurricanes to destructive wildfires—yet the state remains deeply committed to those who protect and serve its communities every day. Recognizing that law enforcement families are the backbone of public safety, state leaders are taking bold action to address one of the profession’s most overlooked workforce issues: childcare.
The National Law Enforcement Foundation (NLEF) is proud to lead efforts in North Carolina to design a state pilot program focused on serving the Department of Adult Corrections, State Troopers, local police departments, and sheriff’s offices. This initiative is aimed at confronting the recruitment and retention crisis head-on by offering real, measurable support for officers and their families.
We are working closely with an extraordinary group of North Carolina Senate leaders who understand that if we want the best men and women to serve our state, we must remove the barriers that keep them from staying in the profession—childcare being chief among them.
NLEF commends North Carolina for its visionary leadership and pragmatic approach to solving real workforce problems. By developing customized, law enforcement-specific childcare solutions, the state is positioning itself as a national model for how to care for those who keep us safe—not with rhetoric, but with results.
