Empowering Officers.
Enhancing Trust.

The Law Enforcement De-Escalation Academy (LEDA) is a nonprofit training organization providing scenario-based, research-supported education designed to reduce use-of-force incidents, enhance officer safety, and strengthen community trust. Our programs give officers practical tools they can apply immediately in the field.

About LEDA

Who We Are

LEDA was founded by veteran law enforcement professionals. Our instructors bring frontline experience to every course, ensuring training is grounded in the realities of policing.

We know firsthand how communication and decision making can change outcomes. That experience drives our mission to provide officers with practical tools they can apply immediately in the field.

What We Offer

Our programs go beyond classroom lectures. Officers practice de-escalation and conflict resolution skills in realistic scenarios that mirror the challenges they face every day.

LEDA equips participants to:

  • De-escalate volatile encounters with confidence

  • Strengthen community trust and engagement

  • Reduce use of force incidents

  • Protect officers, agencies, and communities from risk
