When Mike Butler started as a police officer in Longmont, Colorado, the department and the community were not operating in right relationship with one another. That’s why he began looking for approaches to public safety that would embrace the gifts and talents of all members of the community.

In his 26 years as Chief of Public Safety in Longmont, Mike worked to create community partnerships that were rooted in the principles and practices of restorative justice—and the fruits of this dedication are clear.

Mike joins us on this episode to share how the journey to reimagine public safety in Longmont, CO included taking a hard look at what needed to change within the police department in order to build a culture of mutual responsibility beyond it.
