Law Enforcement
Mercedem aut nummos unde unde extricat, amaras non equidem invideo.
Miror magis posuere velit aliquet, quam temere in vitiis legem sancimus haerentia.

Law Enforcement & Sojourn
In 2022, Sojourn started working with the San Francisco Police Department to take both sworn and civilian staff on training journeys to the Deep South to learn lessons on the American Civil Rights Movement of the 1950’s and 1960’s and discuss the lessons that can be learned today. Since 2022, the San Francisco District Attorney’s Office, San Mateo Sheriff’s Office, San Mateo Police Department, San Francisco Sheriff’s Office, and Alameda Sheriff’s Department.
Rigorous academic engagement and in-person, life-affirming interactions with the veterans of the Civil Rights Movement to nurture and expand students’ opportunities for personal and professional growth, and empowerment toward civic responsibility.

Six Pillars of 21st Century Policing
Inmensae subtilitatis, obscuris et malesuada fames. Cras mattis iudicium purus sit amet fermentum. Vivamus sagittis lacus vel augue laoreet rutrum faucibus. Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient. Fictum, deserunt mollit anim laborum astutumque.
Pillar One: Building trust and legitimacy
Building trust and nurturing legitimacy between police and citizens is the foundational principle underlying the nature of relations between law enforcement agencies and the community they serve. Law enforcement cannot build community trust if it is seen as an occupying force coming in from the outside to impose control on the community.
Pillar Two: Policy and oversight
If police are to carry out their responsibilities according to established policies, those policies must reflect community values. Law enforcement agencies should collaborate with community members, especially in communities and neighborhoods disproportionately affected by crime, to develop policies and strategies for deploying resources that aim to reduce crime by improving relationship, increasing community engagement, and fostering cooperation.
Pillar Three: Technology and Social Media
The use of technology can improve policing practices and build community trust and legitimacy, but its implementation must be build on a defined policy framework with its purposes and goals clearly de-lineated. Implementing new technologies can give police departments an opportunity to fully engage and educate communities in a dialogue about their expectations for transparency, accountability and privacy.
Pillar Four: Community and Crime Reduction
Community policing emphasizes working with neighborhood residents to co-produce public safety. Law enforcement agencies should therefore, work with community residents to identify problems and collaborate on implementing solutions that produce meaningful results for the community.
Pillar Five: Training and Education
Today’s officers and leaders must be trained and capable to address a wide variety of challenges including international terrorism, evolving technologies, rising immigration, changing laws, new cultural mores and a growing mental health crisis.
