The Trust Equation: Leveraging Community Data to Inform Policing Priorities

About the Session

Join Chief Thompson of Greensboro, NC, Chief Strange of West Sacramento, CA, and Chief Rahinsky retired Chief of Grand Rapids, MI for a virtual roundtable focusing on the community trust blueprint: how to use real-time feedback to prioritize resources and build trust for safer, stronger communities. 

Zencity Blockwise tool helps law enforcement to hear from a representative sample of their communities as it relates to sense of trust, safety, respect, and fairness. Specifically, from unengaged and underrepresented neighborhoods to identify key concerns. 

But how can we take these ongoing measurements and use them to prioritize department resources? And ultimately, leverage this data to improve trust within our communities?  

This intimate discussion is exclusive for Zencity partners and will start with insights from the community engagement approach in Greensboro, NC and West Sacramento and some best practices for leveraging ongoing input. 

From there, the roundtable discussion forum will begin as we open the floor to hear from you about challenges, best practices, and strategies.
