Checklist

This checklist is based on recommendations from the 2022 report 21st Century Protest Response: Promoting Democracy and Advancing Community and Officer Safety, authored by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS Office) in partnership with the National Policing Institute. This resource was also reviewed and augmented by the International Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administrators and by university public safety department executives and other experts to ensure recommendations are appropriate for the nonmunicipal agencies that frequently respond to campus protests. The checklist is presented in a suggested chronological order but should be revisited often throughout a protest response based on each agency’s and campus community’s specific needs and resources.
