OIPA continuously seeks opportunities to meet with counties civic groups, neighborhood councils, social clubs, and other community based organizations that help make the Bay Area such a vibrant place. We want to make sure all parts of the Bay Area are aware that they have access to our office in the case they feel they need to get in touch with us.
 

Educational Forums
One of the cornerstones of effective oversight of law enforcement is active community input and engagement. OIPA and the BART Police Citizen Review Board have hosted a series of informational forums. One such forum was designed to further OIPA’s goal of connecting with Bay Area youth. OIPA and the BART Police Citizen Review Board were pleased to pair up with a great organization called Jack and Jill of America, Inc., which seeks to provide social, cultural, and educational opportunities for youth in order to foster their leadership potential. We have great value in the dialogue that has taken place at every one of these events, and look forward to continuing our series at a new location in the near future.

If you’re interested in having OIPA speak to your organization, please call us at (510) 874-7477 or email [email protected].
