The ATO is proud and honored to welcome on the Founder of Breaking Barriers United and Chino PD Officer Ryan Tillman.
This episode will cover Ryan’s journey as he hired on with the Chino Police Department in 2013 and quickly realized the need to improve relations with the police and the communities they serve.
After years of working in Chino PD and being the school resource officer the Don Lugo High School he sharpened his God given talents as a pure communicator as he listened and actually heard the students and the community and formed much needed relationships.
Ryan wanted to take his calling and life mission a step further and create Breaking Barriers United to help transform law enforcement, business, and education, through relationship building using the model of Love, Empathy, and Respect into common practice.
He has created afterschool programs that train and teach students about the profession of Law Enforcement and Career Development and he also has a podcast called “ITSNEEDED” which is currently downloaded in over 47 countries. He hosts the “ITSNEEDED” conference, which brings law enforcement and city officials together for common goals. Currently Ryan is developing a program called “The United” which aims at recruiting and training the best future police officers. Ryan won’t cease his efforts until his goal of “Changing the face of modern-day policing”
The ATO started this podcast to provide a stage to first responders and their supporters to tell their stories to inspire, educate and humanize the profession.
Our title is Bridging the Divide because we understand that first responders Must have a relationship with the communities they serve so that we can better understand each other and be partners in this world.
Officer Tillman the stage is yours as we hear your passion and mission to truly bridging divides.
