One key to ending mass incarceration is improving how police interact with the communities they are charged with protecting. Positive police interactions can help short circuit the school to prison pipeline and enable communities to feel protected and valued. In this workshop you will be given an overview of the recommendations from the President’s Taskforce on 21stCentury Policing and how you can advocate for your community to access resources to help your local police department implement the best practices noted in the report.
