BOONE — The Boone Police Department is working to fill the gap between social work and law enforcement with a new program officials hopes can become a model for other similar-sized agencies.
“There seems to be a gap between what we do and what social workers do,” Boone Police Chief Andy Le Beau said. “We’re really looking for something to fill that gap, and provide a better service to our community because there’s not a lot of agencies that are set up like a police department is to do 24/7 immediate response. Because we are one of the few agencies in the county that is set up for that, people probably over-utilize us.”
