Public safety is a complicated issue that is exacerbated by the constraints and disparities resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. While the CAN project team is interested in understanding the public safety needs and priorities of the community, it is important that these public safety discussions come from an informed, innovative, and socially-just point of juncture.

This activation is the first in the Public Safety series of activations. The Public Safety Advocates Roundtable will primarily include locally-based advocates, academics, and those who specialize in framing and educating communities about the various pathways to public and intra-community safety. Secondarily, thought leaders from other regions will be invited to join this discussion. This initial discussion will not include public safety officials/staff and elected officials.

This event is one in a series of engagement activations designed get to the heart of a dignity-infused, resident-centered experience. The core desired outcomes among all the activations are to activate people to self-determine how they’d like to grow their environments/communities and to spark new ideas and action-oriented civic engagement and ways of being.
