CityWide Canvass Launch June 2021
Divest < Invest
With the support of the Open Society Institute - Baltimore and the NAACP-LDF, the Citizens Policing Project and our partner organizations, Organizing Black and CASA will begin a 2 year Canvass led by our youth advocates, to find out how residents of communities impacted by past police practices, feel is the best way to invest in their public safety. This data will be comprised, analyzed, reported and owned by the commUNITY and used to draft the framework for Divesting $100,000,000 from the Law Enforcement budget and investing that money into community-based solutions, proven to lower crime and violence.
