"MENU OF OPTIONS"
This Menu of Options is intended to serve as a list of resources for Chiefs and the Sheriff to
use when seeking meaningful ways in which to establish and build trust with our respective
communities. This Menu of Options provides specific strategies tied to specific points of
contact. The KCPCA has agreed to adopt the Statement of Values and to conduct annual
Biased Policing Prevention training. The KCPCA recognized that not all the options would be
a good fit for every community, so each Chief and the Sheriff can choose the resources that
best fit the needs of their particular community.
1. POLICY
a) Adopt a Statement of Values for all members of the King County Police Chiefs' Association.
This Statement of Values highlights our commitment as Law Enforcement leaders to ensure
all members of our communities are treated with equity and respect.
"The Sheriff and Police Chiefs in King County place a high value on creating a culture
within our respective departments wherein everyone shares the common values of
community trust, mutual respect, and protection of everyone's civil rights. We live
out our values by ensuring adequate training, leading by example, and holding our
personnel accountable."
b) Adopt the Justice Based Policing model
