NBPD Honors National Police Women’s Day

We would like to acknowledge all female police officers in law enforcement as we celebrate National Police Women’s Day, held every year on September 12th. We thank all of our amazing female officers for their contribution to our department, who continue to pave the way for future generations.

In recognition of this annual day, we thought it would only be fitting to share a video that we’ve had in the works – Assistant Deputy Chief Scott Carola had the opportunity to sit down with the department’s first female police officer AND first female detective, retired Ofc. Pauline Garcelon.

We know this video is lengthy, but you won’t want to miss out on her stories about the history and culture of the NBPD. Thank you for everything, Pauline.
