About Pacer Cordry

Pacer Cordry has served as a Georgia police officer since 2011 and has spent nearly 12 years as his department’s public information officer. He has seen addiction and mental health crises from both sides: on calls as an officer, and at home as the parent of a child who struggles. He can speak to reporters from both a parent’s and a police officer’s point of view.

Our commitment to families

We never share a family’s story or identity without their permission. Interviews with parents are arranged only when a family chooses to take part.
