21st Century Policing Report

The 59 recommendations and 92 action items issued by the Task Force are organized around six main topic areas, or Pillars: Building Trust and Legitimacy, Policy and Oversight, Technology and Social Media, Community Policing and Crime Reduction, Officer Training and Education, and Officer Safety and Wellness.

With the aim of strengthening transparency, trust, service, and respect, the BRPD is relying on these pillars to improve our operations and relationships. We are aligning every aspect of BRPD with 21st Century law enforcement practices. These links reflect our efforts to achieve the goals outlined in the “Final Report of the President’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing.” We will continue to update this information as we advance these objectives.
