Phase One Participating Agencies
2009-2011
The National Police Research Platform began collecting data in 2009 in 28 jurisdictions and one state wide training academy. The participating agencies varied in size and region of the country. They included small, medium, and large jurisdictions, one sheriff’s agency, and one Native tribal agency. Their participation in Platform projects varied. Most agencies participated in law enforcement organizational surveys, chief and sheriff interviews, and the collection of demographic information about their agency. In a smaller set of agencies, a public satisfaction survey was implemented with residents who had a recent contact with one of the agency’s officers. In several agencies, new police recruits and new supervisors were surveyed at multiple time points. The Platform’s data collection encompassed both internal and external measures of organizational performance, and feedback was provided to each agency for the various survey components.
