In July 2021, the Chicago City Council passed an ordinance creating a new model for police oversight, accountability, and public safety. The ordinance creates two bodies: a citywide Community Commission for Public Safety and Accountability, with power to advance systemic reform, and District Councils, which will be elected in each police district and work to improve policing and public safety in the district. The Commission and District Councils will bring police officers and Chicago residents together to plan, prioritize, and build mutual trust; strengthen the police accountability system; give Chicagoans a meaningful new role in oversight; and explore and advance alternative effective approaches to public safety.

Traffic Stops Survey

The Community Commission for Public Safety & Accountability (CCPSA) is hosting a series of listening sessions across Chicago to gather community input on Traffic Stops.  We are looking for community members to share their experiences with traffic stops and provide feedback on current policies and potential changes to the Chicago Police Departments’ practices.
