Criminal Justice Reform
IACP can offer law enforcement leaders the tools, guides, online courses, and other resources to help them implement change within their departments, and become powerful voices to contribute to conversations regarding criminal justice system reform at any level. Whether the topic is juvenile justice, pre-arrest diversion, victim assistance, gender bias, or pre-trial justice, the IACP projects and resources will provide law enforcement at all levels the information, guidance, and insight necessary to advocate for justice systems that are fair, transparent, and effective.
