4.A. - Page r (� Fc <br />PENINSULA CONFLICT RESOLUTION CENTER <br />• Focus should be trust in the police - on social media there's a share of how not to call the <br />police and call other emergency numbers to call because the community doesn't have <br />faith in the police <br />• Analyzing police budgeting - see if there's money there that can be allocated to other <br />parts of the city, public schools are underfunded and shifting funds to places where there <br />can be more of a balance in the community. <br />• Red Morton community center - I go there until 7pm because my parents are at work and <br />i go there to interact with other youth. I really enjoy this center! <br />• As organizer, she comes together via coalition San Mateo discussing with community <br />around themes of defending police, descoping transforming role /make services <br />preemptive, putting money back in community, making community it more equipped <br />and police less armed, leveraging mental health responders, social workers ,city <br />transportation officers (those to address incident traffic rather than ICE) <br />• Support being creative via different organizations and ways to how defund the police and <br />recognizes he doesn't have same experience as police being adversary or threatening due <br />to his status <br />• Revisit police basic tools: learned about other people's bad experience with police, not by <br />direct experience. But still surprised about (underlying deep problems embedded) <br />responses written in police instruction manual re: domestic abuse> (seemed to continue <br />spreading terror with arms) and as a woman, realizes it's scary for her <br />• Add more bilingual bicultural police to represent the population (especially Spanish- <br />language) <br />• Put emphasis on pre-emptive, not emergency "punishment, discipline" services. These <br />include mental health but also immigrant support/ education. <br />• Stop collaboration with ICE. Big problem in RWC community. Police should stop <br />collaborating with ICE> Families, communities have been torn apart. ICE can infiltrate <br />via arrest through incident traffic. Stopping ICE collaboration can have a major and <br />immediate impact. Especially now with Pandemic: Those undocumented are the ones <br />working now and they can 't get help. <br />• Control Rent (important) <br />• Stop Police presence; Example police presence in school threatening and traumatic for <br />her; got blackmail from police saying they could tell on their undocumented family <br />• Also, person involved in shooting still working at sequoia school (officer Gomez) <br />• Replace current Jail system now sending people to jail before their sentences, knowing <br />that reinsertion hard after that <br />• People from the community needs to have a place to have a voice <br />• Provide confidentiality (safe places) for people to speak up <br />• Open communication, active engagement, more diverse community meetings <br />• People need to feel safe <br />• Communication to the community, this is crucial to come to this type of meeting <br />• Take in consideration how they are feeling, asking parents if they need bilingual support <br />• People needs to be really comfortable to be involve, some people still afraid to have this <br />conversation, including people that are legal <br />• Some police officers are not trained to do the work <br />• Police bias specific: "RWC doesn't have a problem", disagree with this statement. <br />84 <br />
