-Paul G. Goldenberg built a distinguished career as a highly decorated criminal justice executive with extensive and broad-based experience in a wide variety of high profile and politically sensitive government and corporate environments. Mr. Goldenberg played a key role in setting domestic and international policy for the legislation and investigation of hate crimes and counter-terrorism. He is well known for his record of resolving numerous high profile and confidential matters for governments, businesses and other organizations around the world. Mr. Goldenberg led the first full time State Attorney General’s Hate Crimes Division and headed the sixth largest County Government agency in the nation.
In February, 2010 US Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano appointed Mr. Goldenberg to the President’s Homeland Security Advisory Council’s Combating Violence and Extremism Working Group. Members were tasked with developing a series of highly sensitive reports and recommendations for President Obama and the US Department of Homeland Security. Mr. Goldenberg’s Secure Community Network program was recognized by the Department as the national model and first-ever faith based information sharing center. In this capacity, he is responsible for providing national level leadership to the US government and private sectors for securing their critical infrastructure and key resources from acts of terrorism and facilitating public private capacity and information sharing.
Mr. Goldenberg currently acts as senior advisor and director of Homeland Security for the County Executives of America, representing over 700 county mayors and executives. In January, 2010 New Jersey’s new Governor appointed him to the Transition team where he was tasked with overseeing the Homeland Security transition for NJ Military and National Guard efforts.
In 2007, Mr. Goldenberg was selected to assess the United Nations law enforcement services operating in the UN KFOR territory of Kosovo at the request of the Chairman and Director of the OSCE (Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe); the world’s largest governmental international security agency in Europe. Mr. Goldenberg made several recommendations for police/minority capacity building in preparation for Kosovo’s independence.
Mr. Goldenberg was later commissioned to act as Senior Adviser to the OSCE working with senior leaders for internal security and law enforcement services for the governments of Spain, Ukraine, UK, Hungary, Serbia, Croatia, Germany, Poland, Romania, France, Canada and many others.
In 1995 Mr. Goldenberg was selected as Commissioner/Director and CEO to lead the turnaround effort for the nation’s sixth largest Human Services and Youth Corrections Department; a failing agency under state and federal investigation. The 1,900-employee organization, with nearly a billion dollar budget was to be taken over by state regulators. Within thirteen months Mr. Goldenberg had reestablished full department credibility in its programs and received full support from state and federal regulators. He established the first ever-countywide division of Special Investigations, targeting fraud within the nation’s fourth largest welfare system. Although Mr. Goldenberg directed many other government agencies, he is best known for his work in criminal justice.
During the 1990’s Mr. Goldenberg’s sensitive assignments included selection by members of the U.S. Senate’s Banking Committee to act as chief investigative strategist for the US Senate “Whitewater” investigation. His responsibilities included oversight of the Senate investigation of the reported suicide of the White House Deputy Counsel. Following the 1993 World Trade Center bombings Mr. Goldenberg was chosen by New Jersey’s Governor to develop and oversee New Jersey’s specialized counter-terror and SWAT training for all twenty-one county SWAT teams. Mr. Goldenberg led numerous missions to Israel where he arranged the first ever Nation/State Joint Counter Terror Training exercise conducted in Ft. Dix, New Jersey. Mr. Goldenberg has been called upon to train hundreds of domestic and international law enforcement agencies.
In 1991 Mr. Goldenberg was appointed by the Attorney General of New Jersey as Chief of the State Office of Bias Crime and Community Relations, the first office of its kind in the nation. Mr. Goldenberg was directly responsible to the Governor and Attorney General for domestic terrorism, hate crimes investigation and intelligence, special civil rights investigations, community relations and counter-terrorism special response training (SWAT). Mr. Goldenberg was deployed as a “trouble-shooter”, with full authority of the Governor to assist local government with defusing civil unrest. His office was also responsible for international law enforcement relations and civil affairs; topics for which Mr. Goldenberg and his organization act as consultants to government, corporations, CNN and other major media outlets.
Throughout the 1980’s Mr. Goldenberg served as special agent in an undercover capacity as part of the elite and renowned South Florida Organized Crime Strike Force. After a four year undercover assignment, Mr. Goldenberg’s accomplishment’s included 200 felony arrests, the breakup of a major organized crime cartel, and the recovery of millions of dollars in stolen property. For his efforts, Mr. Goldenberg was selected as recipient of South Florida’s most distinguished law enforcement award: Officer of the Year.
In 1985 Mr. Goldenberg relocated to New Jersey where he was selected to head a newly established Organized Crime Task Force. Mr. Goldenberg supervised major organized crime investigations that included some of the nation’s most high profile cases. At the request of the New Jersey State Attorney General, Mr. Goldenberg founded and supervised the state’s first hate crimes and domestic terrorism unit, responsible for executing over 150 arrests statewide.
