Why Now?

It’s been more than a year since the Prop B election, and while we have made strides toward stronger discipline, we are still missing key pieces to better civilian oversight and accountability and there are a number of areas of concern.

Due to the overwhelming need for police accountability, ACT 4 SA is dubbing April 2022 –
