Community-Police Engagement

Community-Police Engagement

Trust and transparency between law enforcement agencies and the people they serve is vital to community stability, officer safety, and effective policing. The IACP wants to help agencies build a solid foundation for that trust. Take advantage of the resources and tools designed to enhance the culture, policies, and practices which will unite agencies with their communities. Learn how to establish trust and legitimacy between your agency and community, collaborate with residents to develop policies and oversight which reflect community values, harness technology and social media to engage and educate community members, and work with residents to implement community policing and crime reduction strategies.
