LEAD — Law Enforcement Against Drugs and Violence
The Oradell Police Department provides the
LEAD program to fifth-grade students at Oradell

Officers work directly with students throughout
the school year, beginning early in the school

on positive decision-making, resisting negative
influences, building healthy relationships,
personal responsibility, and making choices that
support a safe and successful future.

The program is a cooperative effort involving

police work, teamwork, responsibility, and
