Community trust and partnerships reflect the extent to which community members are included in public safety priorities and problem-solving.

Community trust and partnerships with law enforcement include an approach to community engagement that defines expectations for proactive community engagement activities, articulates agency leadership’s role in promoting and participating in community engagement, and establishes accountability mechanisms to ensure efforts are sustained and reviewed for continuous improvement.
