Data-Informed Community-Focused Policing
Purpose:
Background on Data-Informed, Community-Focused Policing. Data-Informed, Community-Focused Policing means that police officers will prioritize working with people to build trust, using information that’s accurate and fair, and focusing on solving crime problems in specific places. Importantly, officers will increase their assistance to crime victims and those who are most at risk of becoming victims.Based on input from the public, the Board of Police Commissioners (BOPC), the Mayor’s Office and the Chief of Police, the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD or Department) is embarking on major improvements to better balance trust and public safety. This change will involve the development of more precise actions and measures based on research and evaluation. It will involve working closely with the community to identify problems, solve them, and assess our success. Get a copy of the publication HERE

The major consideration with this report is that what this report suggests is are non-police ways to supplement policing. If ideas and concepts are implemented from this report they should be implemented in the mindset that the value come when these programs run concurrent with policing. Examining many of what this publication sets forth, none of it was examined as a standalone project without policing. All the programs were examined as a response other than law enforcement but the police were still policing.
