Redding cracks NHPD glass ceiling — for now
Ask New Haven Police Department Interim Chief Stephanie Redding, and she’ll say that being a woman has never made her more or less successful at her job.
“I think every officer individually has their strengths and weaknesses,” Redding says.
But during her 23-year career at the NHPD, being a woman has always made Redding a minority within the department, and that has oftentimes been “tough,” she said.
