Past Executive Session on Policing
In the early 1980s, an executive session sponsored by NIJ and Harvard University helped resolve many law enforcement issues of the day. It produced a number of papers and concepts that revolutionized policing. For example, it helped shape the community policing initiative, a problem-solving approach that asked officers to leave their patrol cars and build rapport with members of their communities. Community policing has since been widely adopted, uniting communities and law enforcement agencies in the fight against crime and social disorder.
