Gary, Indiana, is one of six pilot sites employing strategies, examining policies, and developing evidence through research to reduce implicit bias, enhance procedural justice, and promote racial reconciliation. The city was selected as a pilot site for its demonstrated willingness and capacity to engage in the National Initiative’s research, intervention, and evaluation process, as well as its jurisdiction size and demographic composition.
This status report comes as Gary moves into a fourth year of work with the National Initiative: moving forward, the Gary Police Department (GPD) will take steps to institutionalize each component of the NI to ensure sustainability and longevity.
