21CP Solutions helps cities and communities effectively tackle the challenges of delivering safe, effective, just, and constitutional public safety services in the 21st Century.
We empower communities across the country to develop and implement equitable and integrity-driven public safety – grounded in building trust and strengthening relationships.
We are a diverse, seasoned group of professionals who work to help communities transform the delivery of public safety services. We are police chiefs who have worked to turn around troubled police departments and renew community confidence in their agencies. We are civil rights lawyers and community leaders who have contributed to some of the country's most significant public safety initiatives and police reform efforts. We are social scientists and academics who have spent careers understanding what can work in policing and what is possible in public safety. And we are all professionals who have worked in, with, and for communities to drive safe, fair, equitable, and inclusive public safety.
21CP works with communities, cities, and police departments to make public safety work better for everyone. 21CP helps cities design and implement practical, innovative solutions that reflect the unique needs of their communities. We help implement best practices, adapt promising approaches that have worked elsewhere, and establish new ways of doing business that are responsive to community values and needs.
We assist communities and organizations by developing specific tools and helping to structure clear, actionable steps aimed at substantively addressing their challenges. 21CP does not simply make aspirational recommendations about improvements or reforms to policies, practices or procedures. Instead, it actively works with communities across the country to provide ongoing technical assistance and translate broad public safety objectives to operational realities.
21CP Solution’s trusted experts work on the ground in communities and police departments across the country – leading large departments, assisting smaller agencies, and working directly with non-governmental organizations. Public safety led by, and in partnership with, the community is not a theoretical enterprise for 21CP.
