Poll: Is your agency mission ready?

Preparation transforms uncertainty into confidence and ensures your organization is ready for whatever comes next

As Mission Ready Week continues, we’re focusing on what it truly means to be “built for every challenge.” Readiness requires more than response — it demands continuous investment in training, operations, and the people who carry out the mission. Tell us where your agency most needs to focus its efforts to ensure lasting readiness across all fronts.

As agencies nationwide look to strengthen readiness, Lexipol Connect 2025 will bring together public safety leaders to explore what total readiness really looks like — across people, operations and leadership. The virtual event is free — reserve your seat here.
