Community Board on Public Safety

The Community Board on Public Safety was established to identify, make recommendations, and address issues involving the safety, security, and quality of life of students, staff, and faculty — reimagining public safety on the Stanford campus. The Board is charged with fostering trust, relationships, communication, and transparency between the Department of Public Safety and the wider campus community, as well as to provide an avenue for regular community feedback and counsel. The Board will prepare an annual report to the President, Vice President and General Counsel, and Chief of Police.
