WHAT IS THE TASK FORCE?

 

The primary mission of the Police Accountability Task Force was to lay the foundation for the rejuvenation of trust between the police and the communities that they serve by facing hard truths and creating a roadmap for real and lasting transparency, respectful engagement, accountability and change.

The Police Accountability Task Force developed comprehensive findings with specific recommendations for change in the short, interim and long term in five important areas:

  • Video Release Policies
  • De-escalation
  • Community & Police Relations
  • Early Intervention & Personnel
  • Legal Oversight & Accountability
