## Resource

This hour, Newell speaks with New Orleans Police Department Superintendent Chief Anne Kirkpatrick to discuss crime numbers continuing to trend in the right direction, new momentum in officer recruitment, how targeted law enforcement partnerships are delivering real results across the Crescent City, and the latest on City Council budget hearings. Then, Port NOLA Chief of Staff Loren Marino and Nunez Community College Chancellor Dr. Tina Tinney join the show to break down the immediate workforce training available, how local residents can prepare for high-paying maritime careers in just weeks rather than years, and the exact steps you need to take today to lock in your future.
