  • Show Topic: Community Engagement in Policing
    May 5 2024

    Join the Co-host Chiefs live on Thursday at 6PM CST. As they discuss Policing in the United States faces a serious public relations problem. There is a lack of trust between the police and the public resulting in poor police community relations.


    Law enforcement agencies need to find ways to engage with the communities they serve that show the police service in a positive light and improve relations with the citizens they serve. Therefore, police services should foster community engagement to improve police-community relations.

    For all of this to work successfully, however, requires a commitment by the police agency, the individual officers, and the community. And when done successfully, the result will be improved police-community relations. Please join in on this important conversation.
