Police-Community Reconciliation: Healing the Harm of Racialized Policing 

March 12, 2019

Gerald W. Lynch Theater

Please confirm your attendance with our Special Projects Associate Atiya “Tiya” Raja at (212) 693-6427 or by email at araja@jjay.cuny.edu.

The National Network for Safe Communities (NNSC) will host a one-day Police-Community Reconciliation: Healing the Harm of Racialized Policing on March 12, 2019 from 12:00pm – 3:00pm in
the Gerald W. Lynch Theater at John Jay College of Criminal Justice. The Symposium will educate guests on NNSC’s Police-Community Reconciliation Initiative - developed and refined under the
Department of Justice funded National Initiative for Building Community Trust and Justice - as a transformative approach to violence reduction designed to explicitly address the legitimacy crisis between
police and minority communities by paying particular attention to the need for racial justice.

The Symposium will bring together NNSC Director David M. Kennedy and guests from academia, community organizations, law enforcement, government, as well as John Jay College faculty and
students, to learn about the role police agencies have played in the nation’s painful history of racial violence. Attendees will learn how NNSC’s approach to Police-Community Reconciliation has positively
impacted communities across the country that are seeking to tackle this issue head on. It will also serve as a means to announce NNSC’s official and sustained commitment to this important work.

The event will take the form of a conventional panel, a TED Talk-style presentation, and a potential telecast with a police department that has embarked on the necessary yet arduous journey of
Police-Community Reconciliation. John Jay Faculty and NNSC Director, David Kennedy will lead the conversations alongside leading experts and Police Chiefs involved in the reconciliation process.
John Jay College students will have the opportunity to submit questions ahead of the event and will be given the chance to ask these questions to the panelists. The NNSC welcomes class participation and
follow up discussions on ways to include students in this groundbreaking work.

Before and after the discussion, guests are encouraged to meet and mingle over refreshments in the atrium. Please confirm your attendance with our Special Projects Associate Atiya “Tiya” Raja at (212)
693-6427 or by email at araja@jjay.cuny.edu.
