The Policing in America Project is a multi-pronged, open data effort to systematically improve evidence about how the American people view the criminal justice system and police forces. The project seeks to demonstrate the value of building data capabilities to enable a more robust understanding of the relationship between perceptions of law enforcement agencies and the conditions in select cities, including disparate perceptions by sub-populations. During this webinar, we will summarize key findings from the Policing in America Survey in Chicago and Dallas, the first phase of the project. The goal of the survey is to describe experiences and perspectives about police activities by race and ethnicity. A team of experts discussed what the survey results mean and situate the new information within the broader national discourse about race and policing.
