- Report on the Arapahoe High School shooting : lessons learned on information sharing, threat assessment, and systems integrity
- Abstract
- To understand how similar school shootings might be prevented, The Denver Foundation, approached the Center for the Study and Prevention of Violence (CSPV) to assist with the collection, analysis, and interpretation of data obtained through an investigative arbitration agreement. The purpose was to understand the school's risk and threat assessment procedures and responses, the school's approach to safety and climate, and the lessons that may be learned from this incident that could improve youth violence prevention in school settings in the future. In short, the ultimate objective is to discover ways to make schools safer and to help prevent future tragedies like the one that occurred at AHS.

- Recommendations regarding body-worn camera policies in Colorado, pursuant to House Bill 15-1285
- Abstract
- The use of body worn cameras (BWC) among law enforcement agencies is growing rapidly. Law enforcement agencies are using BWCs for a variety of reasons, including improving evidence collection, evaluating and strengthening officer performance and accountability, enhancing transparency, documenting police-public encounters, and investigating and resolving complaints. However, it is important to note that the deployment of BWC systems is in its infancy and much remains unknown about their operational and total cost of ownership impacts. BWCs present important privacy concerns. Citizens may be less willing to provide information to law enforcement when the officer is recording the interaction. The potential for body-worn cameras to be coupled with other technologies, such as facial recognition software, may present additional concerns for citizen privacy.
