Defund the Police

Defund the police reimagines what community safety looks like. It refers to divesting taxpayer dollars from policing and law enforcement activities and investing the savings in public safety measures that support community needs and create the conditions for everyone to thrive. This makes all of us safer. Yet there is a big misinformation campaign about the movement.

Here’s what you can do about it.
