EDUCATION & ADVOCACY
ACLPS focuses on building safe communities through education and advocacy. Our educational approach is multi-faceted, educating the public on the link between our core principles and increased public safety and providing learning opportunities for prosecutors and law enforcement officials.
Education is a crucial tool in equipping individuals with the knowledge and skills necessary to prevent crime, uphold the rule of law, and make our communities safer. ACLPS aims to create a well-informed citizenry, capable of understanding and engaging on legal and policy issues, and to develop and encourage the next generation of legal and public safety professionals. We are at a crossroads in this country, and it is imperative that we increase public confidence in our criminal justice system. ACLPS relies on the expertise of leaders in the field to promote a national conversation and educate locally.
Advocacy is another important aspect of ACLPS's work. As a coalition of individuals who prioritize public safety, ACLPS empowers individuals and communities to engage in advocacy and grassroots activism aimed at promoting safety for all, which we believe is a fundamental right.
ACLPS’s education and advocacy work fosters a greater understanding and appreciation of the importance of the rule of law in building safe communities. Public safety increases with the right kind of leadership. ACLPS is committed to realizing the goal of increased public safety with good prosecutors in every jurisdiction in this country.
