Progressive Policing Community Advisory Board
Purpose:
Formed in 2017, the purpose of the USF Progressive Policing Community Advisory Board (PPCAB) is to provide a forum for community collaboration and feedback with the Department of Public Safety regarding fair, equitable, and effective police practices. The Advisory Board will work collaboratively with public safety to identify problems, develop and recommend solutions to USF Leadership and serve as a resource regarding community safety issues. PPCAB will be a key communications liaison by expressing community concerns to public safety and sharing relevant information with community members from USF Public Safety.
CONSTITUTION:
See the PPCAB Constitution page for the USF Progressive Policing Community Advisory Board Constitution.
Meetings:
See the PPCAB Meetings page for meeting agendas and minutes.
Outcomes:
- Create a workable model in problem-solving around community crime, quality-of-life, social justice, and restorative justice related issues
- Further strengthen community policing and insuring community safety needs are met
- Serve as a positive advisory group and liaison to the community
Membership:
PPCAB is comprised of 10 members of the USF community (4 faculty, 3 students, 3 staff) who have committed to regularly attend meetings, listen respectfully to the viewpoints of fellow members and Public Safety team members, and who are willing to establish a dialogue with the group, organization or constituency they represent. The Director of Public Safety and the Dean of Students will be ex-officio members.
