SUMMARY OF FINDINGS

This assessment analyzes policing data, along with demographic and crime data, to identify which policing practices show patterns of racial disparities, and what factors may be contributing to those disparities.

The vast majority of law enforcement agencies in the United States do not choose to share their policing data publicly or receive independent analyses of these data. Justice Navigator Assessments examine data from law enforcement agencies that voluntarily partnered with CPE to receive standardized analyses that put policing data to work and serve as a starting point for addressing the kinds of racial disparities that persist in policing across the country. Communities can’t improve their public safety systems without identifying opportunities to do so; CPE commends LEA NAME (XPD) for partnering with us to take this first step in addressing racial disparities in their policing. 

XPD joined CPE’s National Justice Database project in MONTH 20XX. XPD shared data with CPE in order to receive analyses intended to support community and law enforcement collaboration on data-informed efforts to advance equitable outcomes in policing and public safety. This assessment analyzes [use of force, vehicle stop, pedestrian stop, and calls for service and officer-initiated activity data from 20XX – 20XX].

Some key findings from the assessment are displayed below. These findings are described and explained in detail in the tabbed sections found at the top of this page.
