Free and open to the public, this symposium will invite scholars, policymakers, and activists together to discuss community-centered alternatives to traditional policing. A major focus of the symposium is to elevate new modes of public safety that better protect vulnerable populations, including women, and especially women of color. While this theme will run throughout, we are focusing a day (10/26) on policing inside the home, with a special emphasis on discussing interventions for domestic abuse that do not result in greater danger to victims or systemic and unjustified separation of families.
Speakers include:
Ronda Goldfein, Safehouse
Mariah Monsanto, BYP100 (She Safe, We Safe campaign)
Assemblymember Sydney Kamlager-Dove, California State Assembly
Farhang Heydari, Policing Project at NYU Law
