This book was released on 2011 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Task Force on Secure Communities is a subcommittee of the Homeland Security Advisory Council (HSAC) and was created in June 2011 at the request of DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano. HSAC, which is comprised of leaders from state and local government, first responder agencies, the private sector, and academia, provides advice and recommendations to the Secretary on matters related to homeland security. The Task Force was asked to consider how Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) may improve the Secure Communities Program, including how to address some of the concerns about the program that "relate to [its] impact on community policing and the possibility of racial profiling," and "how to best focus on individuals who pose a true public safety or national security threat." In addition, the Task Force was specifically charged with making recommendations "on how ICE can adjust the Secure Communities program to mitigate potential impacts on community policing practices, including whether and how to implement policy regarding the removals of individuals charged with, but not convicted of, minor traffic offenses who have no other criminal history."

Book excerpt: The U.S. government efforts to combat the threat of terrorism after the 9111 attacks and the growing number of undocumented immigrants in the country led the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to launch a new deportation program called "Secure Communities" (SC). This program was first implemented by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) at Harris County Sheriffs Office (HCSO) in Houston, Texas, on October 27, 2008. Capitalizing on the information-sharing between federal, state, and local law enforcement through the FBI IDENT and DHS IAFIS interoperability, SC's aim is to keep local communities more secure by prioritizing the removals of criminal aliens. Since its inception, a significant number of convicted criminal immigrants have been removed from the country. However, criticisms are high on SC's impact on community safety, local policing, and racial/ethnic profiling. This research focuses on how SC's implementation impacts crime and policing in Southwest Region locales, specifically, the top six counties where illegal immigration is deemed to be a problem: Jefferson County (AL), Maricopa County (AZ), Miami-Dade County (FL), Fulton County (GA), Bernalillo County (NM), and Harris County (TX). This study analyzes aggregate data on arrests and deportations and employs semi-structured interviews with three county sheriffs to measure the effectiveness of SC on keeping local communities safe and secure. The results show minimal participation of immigrants on crime across the six Southwest Region counties and that the deportation rates do not necessarily reflect the crime rates among immigrants. Interviews with county sheriffs reveal that contrary to the prevailing criticisms of immigration enforcement at the local level, these law enforcement officials do not perceive SC program to promote racial/ethnic profiling in their respective jurisdictions. Lastly, the sheriffs do not contend that SC thwarts illegal immigrants' participation in criminal investigations. Further results and implications will be discussed.

Book excerpt: A groundbreaking new vision for public safety that overturns more than 200 years of fear-based discrimination, othering, and punishment As the effects of aggressive policing and mass incarceration harm historically marginalized communities and tear families apart, how do we define safety? In a time when the most powerful institutions in the United States are embracing the repressive and racist systems that keep many communities struggling and in fear, we need to reimagine what safety means. Community leader and lawyer Zach Norris lays out a radical way to shift the conversation about public safety away from fear and punishment and toward growth and support systems for our families and communities. In order to truly be safe, we are going to have to dismantle our mentality of Us vs. Them. By bridging the divides and building relationships with one another, we can dedicate ourselves to strategic, smart investments—meaning resources directed toward our stability and well-being, like healthcare and housing, education and living-wage jobs. This is where real safety begins. Originally published in hardcover as We Keep Us Safe: Building Secure, Just, and Inclusive Communities, Defund Fear is a blueprint of how to hold people accountable while still holding them in community. The result reinstates full humanity and agency for everyone who has been dehumanized and traumatized, so they can participate fully in life, in society, and in the fabric of our democracy.

Download or read book Open Arms Safe Communities written by Jeanie Garrett and published by Church Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-08-17 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we reconcile the need to create safe places for worship and community with a theology of welcome and inclusion? Most houses of worship know they need a safety plan, but leadership often resists the tough conversations of restricting access and locking more doors. This seems contrary to proclaiming that church is a welcoming, open place for all. There are books, manuals, guides, and articles advising how to create a safety plan for faith-based institutions, but none of them wrestles with the theological questions that come up during the process. By exploring these questions, faith-based institutions of all kinds can better tackle the challenges of creating a safety plan with more thought, insight, and confidence. Understanding that incidents of violence are impossible to ignore, candor about the firearms debate will allow for deeper empathy and clearer direction in decision-making. Throughout this book, the author encourages leadership to reconcile having ultimate faith in God with taking reasonable means to protect ourselves and those in our care.
