ENGAGING THE COMMUNITY. The damage done by the misconduct by a handful of SDPD officers has been felt most sharply by San Diego residents, many of whom have lost faith in the integrity of the police and the department’s ability to ensure officer accountability. Therefore, reform measures must include efforts to involve the community in solving the problems and building new relationships of trust. This report offers a number of strategies for strengthening the SDPD’s partnerships with community members, such as implementing a program specific to San Diego on fair and impartial policing practices, infusing its policing efforts with the principles of procedural justice, and estab- lishing other community engagement strategies such as holding outdoor roll calls and neighborhood walks in which police and community members walk through a neighborhood and discuss local crime issues and other concerns.

Update—implementation of recommendations has begun. While this has been a critical assessment of the SDPD, the COPS Office, and PERF, many within San Diego’s diverse communities have appreciated the willingness of SDPD leaders to open up ...
