Black Municipal Officials’ Workshop: A Holistic Approach to Public Safety
Wednesday, June 17, 2026, 1:30 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. Eastern
Virtual / Zoom
Join our Black Municipal Officials’ Constituency Group for the upcoming workshop A Holistic Approach to Public Safety. This public safety workshop will depart from the frontline strategies of law enforcement and take a more holistic approach to what it means to feel safe. Starting with the premise that public safety can be a public health issue, not solely focused on criminal justice, gives hope that many of the outcomes are preventable. Achieving positive outcomes, however, takes a willing intersection between elected leaders, law enforcement officers, and community leaders. Speakers during this virtual workshop will discuss their work in the context of a whole-community approach to public safety and share strategies proving effective in cities and towns around the country.
