CHICAGO — The Police Department is hosting community meetings to collect resident feedback that will help each district create its 2023 strategic plan.

The community conversations, happening this month with each of the districts, occur every fall and are an opportunity for Chicagoans to discuss issues in their neighborhoods.

Residents are invited to share ideas on how to develop community-driven crime reduction strategies and boost engagement priorities, police officials said. The conversations are also “an integral part of the the department’s implementation of the various reforms outlined in the consent decree,” officials wrote online about the meetings.

In-person and virtual meetings began Oct. 11 and go through the end of the month in each district. Online registration is required.
