WIFLE 20th Anniversary

WIFLE has been in existence since ICWIFLE in the 70's when it was an inter agency committee formed by the U.S. Departments of Justice and Treasury. WIFLE incorporated as a non-profit organization in June 1999 as Women in Federal Law Enforcement, Inc. to better continue the work of ICWIFLE. To this day, WIFLE continues to be the only non-profit in the United States dedicated to addressing reasons why women remain underrepresented in Federal law enforcement.

Mentoring is Imperative!

WIFLE offers a session for mentoring at every leadership training event. We have round-table discussions with local girl scouts, police explorers, and similar community groups so that we can answer questions about being female in a law enforcement environment and questions about each of the Federal agencies. The questions show the amount of curiosity about law enforcement and underscore the importance of sharing our law enforcement life with those coming along. We always hope to inspire careers in law enforcement and we always hope to impress upon girls that Federal, State or local law enforcement is an admirable and attainable goal. If you want to be part of WIFLE mentoring, email WIFLE@comcast.net with your name, telephone, and brief summary of you.

Be creative

We encourage you to submit a proposal for a workshop at the WIFLE Leadership Training event. We focus on law enforcement, security and safety, career and leadership, and work-life balance. Share your proposal with us. Complete the form and email. Your creativity may convert into us making time available.
