Mission Statement
Healing the relationships between police and the communities they serve is one of the most pressing social issues of our time. Often, the approaches employed to bring about change are grounded in a divisive narrative that frames the issue as police vs. community. We believe this narrative fosters an "us vs. them" rhetoric which is ineffective and harmful to both police officers and marginalized communities alike.
Description
We believe we can make a difference and tackle some of our greatest challenges when we collaborate. Because we believe in these principles, we are committed to working with police and community, helping to identify where there are the greatest opportunities for making lasting change and building the pathway to make those dreams a reality.
