Organizations Filed Purposes:
Enhancing the capacity of citizens to hold public institutions accountable. The Organization adheres to the central principle that citizens have co-responsibility with the government for maintaining respect for human rights and, when abuses occur, for demanding redress.
Journalism - The Organization is a journalism organization at its core, and utilizes different mediums to employ such tactics that include human rights documentation, investigative reporting, civil rights litigation, the curating of public information, conceptual art projects and the orchestration of difficult public conversations.
Citizens Police Data Project CPDP - CPDP takes records of police interactions with the public - records that would otherwise be buried in internal databases - and opens them up to make the data useful to the public, thereby creating a permanent record for every police officer. The Organization utilizes its CPDP tool to present the underlying police data. In order to maximize the CPDP program coverage and effectiveness, the Organization makes the codebase for the CPDP tool and all underlying datasets plus data processing scripts and FOIA responses available to the public through the Organization's website.
Youth/Police - This program aims to build conversations with black teens about how their lives are affected by the character of the police presence in their neighborhoods. The program presents how teens describe their interactions with police in their own words, how those encounters make them feel, and how their experiences with the police shape their behavior.
