Women are taking the lead in a family of first responders in Broadview.
A mother and daughter are protecting their west suburban town as the fire chief and a police officer. And as CBS 2's Marissa Perlman reported Thursday night, they are trailblazing a path for more females to get on the force.
Kenny is the village's first female fire chief. In addition, Scalise's dad, David, works for the Department of Public Works. Part of the appeal for Scalise is getting to work with mom. But at the end of the day, Chief Kenny is still mom first to Officer Scalise."Every time I walked into the fire department, they'd say, 'You checked the wrong box,'" Scalise said."That's all I ever wanted to do," she said."I never thought about anything else."
