Here are Four Immediate Steps to Defund the Police and Re-envision Public Safety

When we say “defund the police,” what do we really mean?

Here are four concrete steps toward re-envisioning public safety:

  1.  Remove police from scenarios that do not require their presence ⠀
  2. Reduct funds to response alternatives
  3. Reduce police department size and scope
  4. Invest in community-based resources ⠀

Defunding the police means divesting from policing and investing in communities. With these actions, we can move closer to creating real public safety. #DefundThePoliceSTL
