(CLEVELAND, OH, 2/26/2015) – Dozens of people participated yesterday in a forum on bias-free policing with the Bias-Free Policing Work Group of the Cleveland Community Police Commission held at the ACLU of Ohio and co-coordinated by the Cleveland chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-Cleveland) and area Muslim groups.
The meeting was intended to give the Muslim community a chance to provide input into the set of recommendations on bias-free policing currently being drafted by the Community Police Commission.
