Office of Citizen Complaints briefed commission on national oversight conference and ‘6 pillars’ implementation
Summary
Director Hicks told the Police Commission that OCC staff attended the national civilian oversight conference (theme: confronting systemic injustice) and highlighted the relevance of the '6 pillars' from President Obama's Task Force on 21st Century Policing; Hicks offered to help present San Francisco’s reforms at next year’s conference.
Director Hicks reported to the commission that OCC staff attended the National Association for Civilian Oversight of Law Enforcement annual conference in Albuquerque, where panels emphasized confronting systemic injustice and adopting the Task Force on 21st Century Policing '6 pillars.'
"The task force's implementation guide was included in the conference materials," Hicks said, and noted that conference attendees included civilian oversight practitioners, law enforcement leaders, academics and community activists. Hicks offered to work with the commission and police department to propose a San Francisco panel for next year's conference in Spokane.
Hicks also said the OCC will present its September monthly statistical report to the commission at an upcoming meeting. Commissioners thanked Hicks and endorsed the idea of presenting San Francisco’s reform experience to the national oversight community.
No formal action was taken; the report was informational and intended to support oversight planning and public engagement.
