Public safety in New Orleans requires strong partnerships between law enforcement, the courts, and our communities. For more than 30 years, Michelle Woodfork has led with integrity and a deep commitment to accountability. Congratulations, Sheriff-Elect Woodfork.

April 19–25 marks National Crime Victims’ Rights Week. We honor survivors, support families, and reaffirm our commitment to ensuring every victim’s voice is heard. Listen. Act. Advocate. #NCVRW2026 #VictimsRights

Public safety takes coordination. Today, I stood with state, city, and federal leadership at the LSP Mardi Gras Deployment Briefing to ensure a unified safety strategy for Carnival season. All agencies. One mission. Laissez les bons temps rouler. 🎭

Public safety doesn’t stop at celebration. If you become a victim of a violent crime in New Orleans, call 911 immediately. For direct access to victim services and crisis support, the NOLA HUB connects you to trusted providers across the city — 24/7.

Proud to march in Barkus 2026 with OPDA team members and our facility dog, Karissa Justice 🐾🎭 A New Orleans tradition rooted in community, compassion, and connection.

DA Williams and NOPD Chief Anne Kirkpatrick Deliver Remarks at the New Orleans & Company Public Safety Panel.

Public safety isn’t built on slogans — it’s built on strategy, data, and coordination.

Knowledge is power—but knowing how to use the law to protect yourself and your community is leadership. Grateful to SWBLSA for the invitation to be part of this dynamic, action-oriented panel empowering the next generation of Black legal advocates.
