Thanks for using ReportedPD to submit feedback about police to help improve police-resident relations.
ReportedPD lets you report positive and negative police interactions. Users can commend officers on a job well done. Or, if the interaction is negative, explain what the officer(s) did and provide feedback as to what they would have liked the officer to have done instead.
ReportedPD aims to create a comprehensive data source and feedback loop for police departments and other agencies to help identify where policing and police-citizen relations might be improved. It also helps increase police accountability in a positive way while giving a platform to citizens who may need to express emotions/stories in a place other than social media.
