It was wonderful to see everyone in San Francisco!
The Division of Policing hosted a Roundtable with Panelists that included authors from our inaugural Special Edition in Policing: A Journal of Policy & Practice to discuss collaborative science and highlight the working relationships between our members and practitioners.
