Laramie County Sheriff’s Office
The Sheriff's Office of Laramie County, Wyoming, is among the departments that have sent delegates to Israel. Danny L. Glick has served as Sheriff of Laramie County since 2002. Sheriff Glick attended a training in Israel with JINSA as a delegate of the LEEP program in June 2011. Sheriff Glick is the Immediate Past President of the National Sheriffs’ Association (NSA). The NSA is a trade association that represents thousands of sheriffs, deputies and other public safety and law enforcement officers. The NSA offers police training and other services to these officials and builds networking relationships among local, state and federal law enforcement, in part to share homeland security programs and projects. One of the primary ways the NSA helps sheriffs' offices, departments and associations nationwide is to find and prepare applications for state and federal homeland security grant funding, one of the sources that provide funding for trainings in Israel to local, state and federal law enforcement and public agencies.
