Science meets values: a powerful combination for change. The Center for Policing Equity (CPE) has clear values. #CPE believes in reducing the footprint of the U.S. police state and promoting public safety systems that focus on creating more equitable outcomes for Black communities. These goals are centered around beliefs, but they’re given greater urgency by scientific research. Science is also the tool that can change minds that are set in their ways and gives us credentials to walk into rooms and solve problems that have been generations in the making.

Despite armed police officers being present in nearly half of US K-12 public schools, there is little evidence that police make schools safer. Police do not prevent school shootings or serious crime, and often pose a serious threat to student well-being. Did you miss our webinar on creating safe schools for all students last week? Read on for a detailed recap, link to watch the recording, and resources for creating more equitable K-12 school environments in your community.

For generations, Black and Brown communities have been silenced by systemic racism, our needs and knowledge ignored by entrenched power, our neighborhoods, homes, and bodies subject to violent control and dehumanization. This dynamic has been especially evident in the development of the Atlanta Public Safety Training Center, dubbed "Cop City" by those of us in opposition to the center. Science shows that the best way to improve #policing outcomes is NOT to increase policing's footprint, but to reduce police interactions through evidence-informed, community-centered, and equitable #publicsafety systems, grounded in public health. #CPE stands in solidarity with the people of #Atlanta in fierce opposition to Cop City. Our communities do not to see more of their money going to law enforcement and systems of punishment, but deserve to have their elected officials invest in systems of care that will prevent Black and Brown communities from having to cry out in crisis in the first place.

All children deserve to feel safe at school and to have meaningful opportunities to learn. Safety for K-12 students means that they do not experience violence or bullying, they are not discriminated against, they do not fear criminalization or deportation, and they feel a sense of belonging. Many K-12 schools employ police or “School Resource Officers” (SROs) to ensure student safety, but evidence does not show that they reduce gun-related or other violence. Today CPE releases its third white paper in its Redesigning Public Safety Resource Series on K-12 School Safety. Click here to better understand why badges, guns, harsh discipline, and surveillance in schools do not make them safer, and can fuel the school-to-prison pipeline and disproportionately harm Black, Latinx, Indigenous, and LGBTQ+ students 👉 : https://lnkd.in/eS_xzeGQ
