Scenario

Leaders at your agency for victim support services have asked the victim advocates to give presentations at an
upcoming meeting of the city council or state legislature to advocate for improvements to community
policing Your agency wants to show the city or state leaders the current, accurate data that supports their claim
that a particular demographic group has been disproportionately targeted or treated unethically by community
policing practices and is in need of change.
Preparation
Refer to the gender, racial, or ethnic group you selected in your Wk 2: State Demographic Data assignment. This
group should be represented in the prison demographics for your state and will be your focus as you examine the
influence of gender, racial, or ethnic aspects of diversity in community policing
Research statistical demographic information on the imprisoned populations in your state or local
area. (You may use the same resources from last week's assignment.) Examine data for the racial,
ethnic, or gender group that you choose to study. Access the Detailed Data Tool from The Sentencing
Project for data on these groups.
Research at least 2 scholarly sources about issues in policing the selected gender, racial, or ethnic
group.
Assessment Deliverable
Using data from your state or local area, create a 10-to 12-slide Microsoft PowerPoint presentation to city
or state officials as if you were a victim advocate working on behalf of a community to recommend a plan
for reducing disparity in the policing of minority groups.
Your presentation should include the following information with supportive examples from your research:
Cite relevant demographic information from state or local statistics on the race, ethnicity, or gender of
the group you selected. Note any relevant disparities between groups.
Explain the roles of the various criminal justice agencies and representatives engaged in building
rapport with the group you chose. Summarize the ethical responsibilities of criminal justice
professionals to serve multicultural populations. Give an example of a risk to effective community
policing that could occur based on an officer's biases or lack of cultural competence with the selected
population.
- Identify aspects of multiculturalism and societal diversity to consider when policing this group.
Describe how cultural, spiritual, or other factors may cause challenges for a minority defendant from
this group during their interactions with law enforcement. Describe challenges to developing
community policing practices impartial to gender, race, or ethnicity.
-Propose at least 1 recommendation based on your findings for how to address the gender, racial, or
ethnic disparity identified. Make a call to action for the city council or state legislature to implement
changes based on your recommendation. (If no improvements are needed, recommend a strategy for
maintaining the results that you identified.)
