Problem Statement
"I have been profoundly affected by what recent events have revealed about the state of race relations in our country and the indisputable evidence those events provide of police brutality. I hear the pain, anger, exhaustion, and calls for accountability that members of our community have shared with me in the many letters that I have received, and the many conversations I have had in recent weeks."
- Chancellor Christ 6/18/2020 email to campus
Business Case
"I agree with and support the efforts of individuals and organizations to accelerate and strengthen efforts to reexamine the role of police in society and reimagine alternative systems of community safety. Elements of our country’s law enforcement culture dehumanize some of the very people whose safety and wellness police officers are sworn to protect, especially the Black community. Here, on campus, we know and have acknowledged that we can and must do better to find new approaches to policing and community safety."

Risk/Issue Details
- Type of Risk/Issue: Resource, Schedule, Scope
- Description: With the new systemwide UC Community Safety Plan (UCCSP) the IAB recommendations may take a back seat to the 'actions' required by the UCCSP. In addition, there is overlap between the IAB recommendations and the UCCSP actions. This could muddy the efforts for completing the IAB recommendations to their original intent.
- Mitigation Plan:
- Assess the 'overlap' between the IAB recommendations and the UCCSP actions
- Reassess the approach and plan for completing the IAB recommendations
- Work closely with the IAB to collaborate on both initiatives
Recent Accomplishments
- 11 Recommendations have evidence of completion and are ready for the IAB to review
