Advisory Commission on Policing

Mission

The Advisory Commission on Policing (ACP) was created in 2019 by the Montgomery County Council in response to the ongoing public dialogue around policing practices and as an effort to increase community involvement in matters of public safety. The Commission’s mission is to advise the Council on policing matters and recommend policies, programs, legislation, or regulations with regards to policing.

Request for Public Input

The Montgomery County Advisory Commission on Policing advises the County Council on policing matters and recommends policies, programs, legislation, or regulations with regards to policing.  To inform our work and advice to the county council, we need community input from a diverse group of community members, especially from those who live and work in areas disproportionately impacted by crime and policing.  We want to hear from you—what are your views and concerns related to policing? 

Whether it's related to police accountability, use of force, community trust, crime, police staffing, or mental health crisis response, your perspective is essential.  Let us know your concerns and views on how policing and community safety can be improved in Montgomery County.
