Over the years, policing has adopted "zero-tolerance" policies that have increasingly alienated communities, particularly communities of color. This report highlights new, innovative strategies for moving policing towards a community-based approach. These strategies include emphasizing community building, collaborating with communities to problem-solve, and adopting a community-informed approach to policing. The report also touches upon recruitment tactics, and tips for community research. Overall, the report emphasizes the relationship between policing and people, and offers a vision of community-centered policing that is fair, equitable, and democratic.
