Low Income People

Describe the challenge you want to address:

Low income neighborhoods face higher crime rates (domestic violence, robbery, arson) yet they are also unsafe because the NYPD harasses civilians instead of protecting them from actual criminals.

What is the solution to the challenge?

Training program for NYPD officers to specifically look for crime, not stereotypes. There should also be info sessions for individuals of low-income neighborhoods to navigate the legal system to avoid being harassed by cops.
