Stoneleigh Board Member and former Fellow Kevin Bethel is highlighted in The Philadelphia Inquirer for his efforts to roll out a five-year strategic plan, shaped by input from community members, for the Philadelphia Police Department.
Police Commissioner Kevin Bethel on Thursday said his staff is well on its way to drafting a five-year strategic plan shaped by input from community members — something he and the mayor dubbed as a first for the department, and that should be completed shortly after the start of the New Year.
Early workings of the plan, Bethel said, have been molded by conversations with more than 200 people so far, from police captains and administrators to community stakeholders and young people directly affected by the criminal justice system.
