  • The Community Responder Model How Cities Can Send the Right Responder to Every 911 Call
    GETTY PFOSI IMAGES/NICHOLAS The Community Responder Model How Cities Can Send the Right Responder to Every 911 Call By Amos Irwin and Betsy Pearl October 2020 WWW.AMERICANPROGRESS.ORG Contents 1 Executive summary 3 Background 4 The Community Responder model 14 How the Community Responder model works 20 Next steps communities can take to move forward on Community Responders 22 Conclusion 24 Appendix: Existing civilian responder models 26 Methodology 27 Acknowledgements 28 Endnotes Executive summary Today, a significant portion of 911 calls are related to quality-of-life and other low- priority incidents that may require a time-sensitive response but are better suited to civilian responders, rather than armed police officers. Some 911 calls may not require a time-sensitive response at all. Recent original analysis conducted by the Center for American Progress (CAP) and the Law Enforcement Action Partnership (LEAP) examined 911 police calls for service from eight cities and found that 23 to 39 per- cent of calls were low priority or nonurgent, while only 18 to 34 percent of calls were life-threatening emergencies. While many 911 calls do merit an emergency police response, unnecessarily dispatching armed officers to calls where their presence is unnecessary is more than just an ineffective use of safety resources; it can also create substantially adverse outcomes for communities of color, individuals with behavioral health disorders and disabilities, and other groups who have been disproportionately affected by the American criminal justice system. To improve outcomes for the community and reduce the need for police response, LEAP and CAP propose that cities establish a new branch of civilian first responders, known as “Community Responders.” As envisioned, Community Responders would be dispatched in response to two specific categories of calls for service that do not require police response.

  • Policing in Rochester Survey Comments
    PLEASE NOTE THAT FOR TRANSPARENCY, COMMENTS IN THIS REPORT ARE NOT EDITED AND MAY CONTAIN OFFENSIVE LANGUAGE. Resp. ID Comments Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q5 1 No Yes Yes Yes Unsure Yes Panhandling has gotten out of control throughout the city. This acutely affects quality of life for city residents and also presents a horrible image to people who live outside the city who we depend on to patronize our businesses. This should be top priority for City Hall. In order to discourage this behavior, the punishment should be drug/alcohol rehabilitation and/or mental health 3 counseling. Yes Yes Yes No Yes Let the police accountability board operate with it's full authority, including 5 disciplinary powers, like the residents voted for them to do. Yes Yes Unsure Yes No Actively try to reduce poverty in Rochester in conduction with better 6 policing reform Yes Yes Yes Yes Unsure Reallocation of funds in the city budget, specifically I saw that new departments were being built in areas. It is far more important to put those resources into areas that would benefit from it. Police’s role in our communities is too broad and should be narrowed down. Furthermore The police agencies within Monroe County should all reexamine the hiring standards for police officers (Bachelor’s degree at minimum). Modern policing develops a culture of rewarding silence. There needs to be a negotiation with the police unions to not only prevent officers from being rehired, but also come up with a form of licensure for officers so that if they violate the terms of their duty then they have their license revoked.

  • Race, Surveillance, Resistance
    Race, Surveillance, Resistance CHAZ ARNETT The increasing capability of surveillance technology in the hands of law enforcement is radically changing the power, size, and depth of the surveillance state. More daily activities are being captured and scrutinized, larger quantities of personal and biometric data are being extracted and analyzed, in what is becoming a deeply intensified and pervasive surveillance society. This reality is particularly troubling for Black communities, as they shoulder a disproportionate share of the burden and harm associated with these powerful surveillance measures, at a time when traditional mechanisms for accountability have grown weaker. These harms include the maintenance of legacies of state sponsored, racialized surveillance that uphold systemic criminalization, dispossession, and exploitation of Black communities. This Article highlights Baltimore City, Maryland as an example of an urban area facing extraordinary challenges posed by an expanding police surveillance apparatus, fueled in part by corruption and limited channels of formal constraint. As Black residents experience the creep of total surveillance and its attendant aims of control and subordination, the need for avenues of effective resistance becomes apparent. This Article argues that these communities may draw hope and inspiration from another period in American history where Black people were subjected to seemingly complete surveillance with limited legal recourse: chattel slavery. People enslaved in or passing through Maryland used a variety of means to resist surveillance practices, demonstrating creativity, bravery, and resourcefulness as they escaped to freedom on the Underground Railroad. Internalizing and building upon these lessons of agency and resistance will be critical for Black communities in Baltimore and other similarly situated places across America that are seeking relief from the repressive effects of pervasive police surveillance.

  • Staff Memorandum
    Staff Memorandum HOUSE OF DELEGATES Agenda Item # 7 REQUESTED ACTION: Approval of the report and recommendations of the Task Force on Racial Injustice and Police Reform. The Task Force on Racial Injustice and Police Reform was appointed to examine the issues contributing to police brutality and to provide recommendations to policymakers, elected officials, members of law enforcement and the judiciary to end deleterious policing practices that disproportionately impact persons of color. The Task Force engaged a diverse group of stakeholders to study the issues and held four public forums. Areas reviewed by the Task Force included (1) the qualifications and training of police; (2) monitoring of police activities including the use of body cameras and other data-gathering techniques; (3) the role of civilian review boards, and community oversight bodies charged with the identification and investigation of police misconduct; (4) the prosecution of police misconduct cases; and (5) the role and impact of legislation in the reform of policing. The Task Force’s report is attached, making 35 recommendations in the areas of improved policing; additional accountability within the criminal justice system; additional accountability in the offices of district attorneys and public defenders; and additional accountability through the courts. The report will be presented at the June 12 meeting by Task Force co-chairs T. Andrew Brown and Taa R. Grays. Report and Recommendations of the Task Force on Racial Injustice and Police Reform June 2021 The views expressed in this report are solely those of the Task Force and do not represent those of the New York State Bar Association unless and until adopted by the House of Delegates.

  • Report and Recommendations of the Task Force on Racial Injustice and Police Reform
    Report and Recommendations of the Task Force on Racial Injustice and Police Reform June 2021 The views expressed in this report are solely those of the Task Force and do not represent those of the New York State Bar Association unless and until adopted by the House of Delegates. Executive Summary Police officers, state troopers or members of sheriff’s offices (hereinafter collectively referred to as “police officers” or “police”) serve an integral role in protecting our communities from harm, preventing the commission of crimes and investigating and bringing to justice those that commit crimes. Communities want and need the police. Communities also want police that do not unnecessarily harm, or even kill, the people the police are charged with protecting. In many communities of color, the police are a double-edged sword. They are the legal remedy to address acts of violence, control dangerous situations and investigate crimes committed. Yet, these communities are often wary of police because the line between controlling and escalating situations during efforts to contain incidents seems to be too often crossed with tragic consequences. A Pew Center Research survey conducted a month prior to the murder of George Floyd “found that 78% of Americans overall – but a far smaller share of black Americans (56%) – said they had at least a fair amount of confidence in police officers to act in the best interests of the public.”1 These tragic consequences disproportionately impact and result in serious harm and deaths of Black and brown men. During an unprecedented pandemic, the nation in lockdown watched on May 25, 2020 as George Floyd was murdered by a Minneapolis Police Department training officer who knelt on his neck for approximately nine minutes while his trainee and other officers looked on.2 A call for police to respond to the commission of an alleged non-violent crime of fraud unexpectedly and tragically ended in Floyd’s death.
