Today, Criminal Justice Cohort students had the privilege of hearing from Curtis Eller, Director of Community Outreach & Public Engagement for the CT Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection.
A retired police officer, Curtis now works alongside Commissioner Ronnell Higgins to strengthen public safety efforts across the state. He shared insights on the six divisions of DESPP, offering students a deeper understanding of the agency’s critical role in emergency response and law enforcement.
Thank you, Curtis, for your time and expertise!
