Alternate Responses, Programs, and Investments Advisory Board

An advisory board of the Reimagining Public Safety Taskforce.

Advisory Board Tasks

This working group will help the Task Force make recommendations by gathering and assessing data about alternatives to policing that increase safety, including:

  1. Emergency responses to, e.g., mental health crises, intimate partner violence, incidents in schools, people who are unsheltered;
  2. Areas that may be suitable for decriminalization, such as quality of life and other non-violent infractions;
  3. Community-based programs that can replace and/or civilianization of a police function, such as transformative justice circles, community care pods, and violence interrupters;
  4. Overview and operation of emergency and non-emergency phone numbers;
  5. Targeted community investments to address root causes of poverty and violence, including investments in programs that prevent crime (e.g., job creation (youth/adults), housing, education, and recreational activities).
