Community-Based Alternatives to Policing

To learn more, visit https://www.mnjrc.org/ This session discusses alternatives to policing, in which the panelists envision community safety that includes the wellbeing of all our neighbors. These solutions are intended to divert from touches with the criminal legal system and ultimately support more trauma-informed, holistic, and culturally responsive approaches to safety. The panel aims to cover at least three primary community alternatives to policing, including a current mental health first responder team being dispatched by 911 in Minneapolis. The other programs they discuss are currently being implemented in other cities, improved over time by community activists and scholars. The goal is to promote fruitful conversations and action to push for viable alternatives alongside the current policing reforms being implemented in the Twin Cities. They further expand beyond alternatives that singularly rely on other professions that still have historically harmful relationships to communities (e.g., social workers, psychologists). Additional topics covered by panelists include restorative justice, community engagement, and cross-sector partnerships.
