About Us

Community Partners

The Community Police Commission (CPC) works with many organizations and individuals to engage the community in the process of police reform.

The CPC partners with a diverse range of community groups, organizations, and individuals to ensure that a variety of community perspectives about policing are heard and reflected in the CPC’s reports and policy recommendations.

The CPC is grateful to our dedicated partners who have volunteered their time, expertise, and facilities with the goal of supporting effective and respectful policing in our community. 

Ways to Get Involved

Ongoing community input is crucial to ensure policing in Cleveland is constitutional, effective, and consistent with community values. Join a CPC work group to discuss issues outlined in the Consent Decree and develop recommendations for police policy improvements, or participate in upcoming CPC and community events to share your thoughts about policing and related issues in your community. Cleveland needs your voices!

Thank you to our partners
