“Officer Sarah Shendy awarded for her effort to improve police recruitment and community relations ”
Officer Shendy was the only police officer for Ohio, and the only Arab-American officer to receive the award during a ceremony that included 15,000 police officers from around the world.
Shendy believes continuing to improve officer training is crucial in the evolution of policing, as well as direct community outreach. Officer Shendy has been serving with the Copley Township police department for 14 years and was appointed Director of Ohio’s Office of Law Enforcement Recruitment by Governor Mike DeWine.
Chief Mier agrees policing education and awareness are needed, and said his department is now working with the Copley-Fairlawn School District to create student classes at the high school level.
