Community Accountability Board
Eliminate Racism 815 recommends that the City of Rockford develop a Community Accountability Board. Our goal is to strengthen the relationship between community and police and improve accountability.
Independent community-led review of the Rockford Police Department would provide:
-
Transparency and trust
-
Fair and effective policing
-
Protection of the civil and constitutional rights of all the people
