The Cleveland Community Police Commission (CPC) was established in 2015 as part of the terms of the Consent Decree between the City of Cleveland and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ). Following an investigation, the DOJ determined there was a pattern of excessive force used by the Cleveland Division of Police (CDP). The Consent Decree outlined the work that needed to be done so CDP policies, practices and procedures comply with Constitutional law.
Cleveland voters approved amendments to the city’s charter in 2021 that gave the CPC final say over police discipline.
The CPC was mandated under the Consent Decree to provide community input on needed policing reforms from the many diverse communities in Cleveland:
Faith-based organizations
Civil rights advocates
Business/philanthropic community
Communities of color
Advocacy organizations
Academia
Youth and student organizations
Homeless
Those with mental illness
CPC Commissioners consist of individuals that represent the diversity of Cleveland and a representative from each of the following police associations: The Black Shield, Fraternal Order of Police (FOP), and The Cleveland Police Patrolmen’s Association (CPPA).
The CPC works to empower the community’s voice in the reform process. It works with the community to develop reports and recommendations on ways police policies can better reflect community values. Better policies will help ensure policing in Cleveland is safe, effective, and that people’s civil rights are upheld.
