Policing demands more. With Strong leaders, willing to speak out, with solutions = a safer community. Policing is let down by those In power. Why won’t those at the top speak out? Policing won’t change until those at the top want change. It starts with them…. https://lnkd.in/eqHMQiu3

My vlog on ‘Community policing’ (CP) a vital approach to democratize policing, fostering a collaborative relationship between law enforcement and the communities they serve. By engaging with citizens, listening to their concerns, and addressing their needs, police can build trust, legitimacy, and support. This leads to more effective law enforcement, as communities become active partners in preventing and solving crimes. CP encompasses various strategies, including: 1. Community engagement and outreach 2. Neighborhood policing and patrols 3. Problem-oriented policing 4. Partnerships with local organizations and stakeholders 5. Transparency and accountability By adopting CP principles, law enforcement agencies can: 1. Enhance public trust and confidence 2. Improve communication and cooperation 3. Reduce crime and fear of crime 4. Promote inclusive and equitable policing practices 5. Strengthen community cohesion and social bonds

Trust is key, and it all starts with community policing. From historical perspectives to community-driven decisions, see how police departments are strengthening community bonds. https://lnkd.in/eqvkWN8r

ICYMI: We recently launched a report on alternative first response and community safety in Denver with Dr. Jessica Gillooly, Tamara Leech, and Brenda J. Bond-Fortier, PhD. One of our major findings is that there is broad agreement – among community members, police leaders, and alternative first responders – that “sending police to deal with every social problem simply isn’t working.” For more information on this report: https://lnkd.in/gbNSjXc4

We are most impactful in advancing community policing through community governance when we partner with residents, city leaders, civic groups, and businesses. Together, we are addressing community concerns and improving the quality of life for all.👮♂️💪💙🙏#communitygovernance #communitypolicing #community #safety #policing #cmhapd

In District 18 (Alameda, Emeryville, and Oakland), I am dedicated to fostering community policing. I am convinced that the Community Policing Act, a bill I am proposing, will be a game-changer for our district and California as a whole. This act will make it mandatory for all police officers (excluding detectives and undercover officers) to live in the cities and counties they serve. This approach will encourage trust and collaboration between citizens and law enforcement through shared experiences such as living, working, attending school, and shopping together. To make this a reality, the state of California, counties, and cities will allocate funds and create housing opportunities for our committed police officers. Additionally, the state will make foreclosed homes available to police officers to ensure they can reside in the communities they serve. The Community Policing Act aims to build trust and teamwork between citizens and law enforcement, reduce incidents of police brutality, decrease and prevent crime, and bolster police recruitment. #CommunityPolicing #BuildingTrust #PoliceReform #CaliforniaPolice #CommunityCollaboration #PublicSafety #PoliceHousing #LawEnforcementIntegration

🤝💙 Strengthening Our Bond: The Essence of Community Policing 🏡🚓 In a world where trust and unity are paramount, community policing stands as a beacon of hope and collaboration. 🤝🏙️ It's about more than just law enforcement; it's about building authentic connections between officers and the neighborhoods they serve. 🏠 When officers are actively engaged in our communities, they become familiar faces, friends, and allies. This presence fosters trust, making it easier for us to reach out when we need help or guidance. Together, we create a safe and supportive environment for everyone. 🗣️ Communication is the key! Through open dialogue, officers and community members can work together to address local concerns, find solutions, and prevent issues before they escalate. This approach makes our neighborhoods not just safer but also more vibrant and inclusive. 🌎 Community policing is a reminder that we're all in this together. When we collaborate, we strengthen the fabric of our society, turning fear into friendship and misunderstanding into empathy.
