    (POSTPONED) Reimagining Safety Workshop

    *Event postponed; stay tuned for more info!

    Join ICPJ for a community workshop on Reimagining Safety. We’ll reflect together, expand our sense of what public safety could include, and examine how that could be supported by policy at the local and state levels. You’ll gain tools for having conversations in your communities and networks around how we keep each other safe. All are welcome!

    Sunday, September 27, 1:30-4 pm

  • Training on the Sheriff’s Dashboard

    Training on the Sheriff’s Dashboard

    Are you curious about the data on reported crime, arrests, traffic stops, and responses by the Washtenaw County Sheriff’s Office? Would you like a say in what the WCSO public dashboard looks like?

    Join ICPJ’s Care and Freedom Circle and Adreanne Waller of the Washtenaw County Sheriff’s Office for a training on the WCSO public dashboard! This event is part of the Care and Freedom Circle’s work to promote accountability and transparency from the Sheriff’s office.

    During the meeting, we will:

    • learn what is (and is not) included on the dashboard;
    • practice using this interactive tool to answer specific questions related to community safety and WCSO response; and
    • give feedback on what data our community needs access to.

    The Sheriff’s Office is currently working to revamp the dashboard, so this is the perfect time to make your voice heard!

    Event info:

    Thursday, September 24, 6-8 pm
    LEAF Harm Reduction, 211 E Michigan Ave, Ypsilanti
