The Cna Corporation

Police Agencies in the United States Are Confronting New Challenges; as a Result, They Require a Fresh, Evidence-based, and Objective Approach to Support Their Reform and Transformation Efforts. the Collaborative Reform Initiative (CRI) Initiated by the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) in 2011 Is One of the Most Comprehensive and Strategically Designed Initiatives Aimed at Achieving This Needed Advancement in American Policing. Cna, in Partnership With the Institute for Intergovernmental Research (iir), Proposes to Implement the Organizational Assessments Component of the Cops Cri. We Will Deploy a Highly Flexible and Agile Project Leadership Structure to Manage the Program, Working Alongside Dedicated Site Teams to Lead Their Assigned Site Through a Continuous and Rigorous Six-step Approach for Organization Assessment and Engagement. Capacity Building, Community and Stakeholder Engagement, and Sustainability Will Be Core Focuses of These Engagements, Which Will Facilitate Immediate Transition to Implementation Support as Recommendations Are Identified. Throughout the Program, We Will Monitor Site Progress Through Performance Measurement and Other Standardized Procedures, as Well as Produce Lessons Useful for the Broader Field of Law Enforcement.
