My agency is currently in the self-assessment phase of the CALEA Tier 1 accreditation process. I am looking at standard 1.2.9, specifically bullet C. Does anyone have a sample of what a report like this should look like? It seems like it ties in to the CIMRS reports, but I want to make sure we wouldn’t be doing too much/too little for what this report should require. Thanks in advance for any assistance.
The agency has a written directive governing unlawful or improper bias in public safety and, at a minimum, includes the following provisions:--
- a prohibition against unlawful or improper bias in public safety;
- initial training prior to assignment, and annual refresher training in biased issues including legal aspects, for all affected personnel; and
- a documented annual administrative review of activities with potential for bias to include, but not limited to, traffic and field contacts, asset forfeiture efforts, citizen complaints and any corrective measures taken.
