Office of the Public Safety DCA Public Safety Service Area CAO - Community Safety Division Program Description & Goals The Community Safety Division has become a part of the Office of Public Safety Deputy City Administrator. The budget for this program offer contains Business Services, Communications, Leadership and Admin, Ceasefire, Focused Intervention Community Oversight Group, and Rose City Self Defense. As the Office of Public Safety DCA transitions this year, there will be additional programs added and the legacy Community Safety Division program will be retired. The programs work alongside members of the community (in particular those most affected by public safety concerns and responses), City Council Offices, public safety bureaus, community safety programs within infrastructure bureaus, behavioral health partners, and local jurisdictions to implement innovative strategies that promote vibrant and resilient communities and reduce the need for emergency services. A key goal of the programs is to transition Portland’s current public safety model, in which four public safety bureaus operate independently of one another, into a holistic system that aligns City bureaus and resources to improve services and outcomes for the community. Equity Impacts The programs are committed to the City of Portland’s core values—Anti-racism, Communication, Collaboration, Equity, Transparency, and Fiscal Responsibility—throughout their programs and processes. The group is leading a strategic planning project for the four public safety bureaus that will help ensure that all Portlanders are safe, with access to help when they need it; that services are coordinated effectively and efficiently; and that the bureaus are accountable and adaptable to current community expectations and changing conditions. This strategic plan will help identify innovative alternative service models and refocus existing resources and programs so that the community feels that the responses to their safety needs are adequate, appropriate, support their wellbeing, and don’t cause harm. This plan will ensure identity does not determine outcomes and that Portland’s public safety system is equipped to serve the most marginalized communities. Among other key issues, it will need to incorporate meaningful and actionable steps to address racial equity, the crisis of houselessness, gun violence, and building resilience in the context of climate change while fostering collaboration and helping to build a cohesive community safety system. The Ceasefire program directly addresses equity by focusing resources on individuals and communities most affected by gun violence. This targeted approach helps to mitigate the disproportionate impact of gun violence on marginalized communities, particularly in areas with high rates of violence and socio-economic challenges. By providing tailored interventions and support, Ceasefire aims to offer equitable opportunities for safety and recovery, fostering a more inclusive and secure environment for all Portland residents. The group also provides staff support to Portland Police Bureau’s Focused Intervention Team (FIT) Community Oversight Group. The goal of the Focused Intervention Team is to deescalate and lower tensions throughout communities that are prone to gun violence. The FIT operates under a Community Oversight Group to ensure policing strategies do not further perpetuate harm or inequities among communities receiving focused intervention.

Office of the Public Safety DCA Public Safety Service Area The aforementioned project, which analyzes emergency call types and distributes them to more fitting service providers, addresses a current service gap in Portland’s emergency response system. Cities across the nation are seeing elevated rates of people experiencing behavioral health crisis. Dispatching armed police officers to these types of civil disturbances have yielded undesirable outcomes more often than they should. Changes to Program The Community Safety Division has been dissolved and the new Public Safety Service Area will be served by the Office of the Public Safety Deputy City Administrator who works with bureaus and local partners to deploy equitable, transparent, and effective community safety solutions. The Office of the Public Safety Deputy City Administrator is now comprised of two units: Enterprise Services and Community Safety. Enterprise Services encompasses service area units, including Business Services, Policy & Legislation, Communications, and community advisory body program management. Community Safety include the Office of Violence Prevention (OVP), Portland Ceasefire, and Portland Street Response. The four public safety bureaus work alongside Enterprise Services and Community Safety and report to the Deputy City Administrator.

Office of the Public Safety DCA Public Safety Service Area Office of Violence Prevention (OVP) Program Description & Goals Created in 2006, the Office of Violence Prevention (OVP) has continuously worked towards building a more family-friendly city by increasing public safety through its research and data-driven approach. OVP addresses complex factors that drive violence by using a public health lens. This approach is multi- disciplinary and requires a multi-sector approach that defines violence as a virus that is therefore treatable and preventable. OVP recognizes that not only does gun violence cause injury and death, but it also erodes the physical, psychological, social, and economic health and development of nearly everyone in affected communities. Gun violence reduces life expectancy, inflicts trauma, limits opportunity and achievement, and further entrenches inequities. OVP’s efforts are shaped by elevating the voices of those most impacted. This includes our BIPOC community, youth, community residents, key stakeholders, and many others. OVP partners with Community-Based Organizations (CBOs) through our grant program by providing essential services to historically disenfranchised communities. The Office works with city bureaus, government agencies, local businesses, schools, and the faith community to provide consistent policy input, guidance, and advocacy to address gun and community violence. Equity Impacts Programming managed by OVP supplies community-based and -led violence intervention and prevention programs to communities of color and the underserved. OVP observes The Bill of Rights for the Children and Youth of the city of Portland and Multnomah County, adopted by the City of Portland in 2006, which is made available on the OVP webpage. OVP’s grant managed programs provide culturally specific services to communities of color and those underserved and historically disenfranchised. OVP provides recurring community engagement opportunities for communities of color, while networking public concerns with public and private resources through the facilitation of the Community Peace Collaborative public forum. Additionally, OVP provides facilitation and/or enjoins as a stakeholder in meetings or events supporting communities of color. Grantee organizations are equal opportunity employers and honor their obligations under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and state disability laws.

Office of the Public Safety DCA Public Safety Service Area Portland Committee on Community Engaged Policing Program Description & Goals The Portland Committee on Community-Engaged Policing (PCCEP) program supports a public, independent committee that reports to the Mayor and is most concerned with elevating the voice of the community, especially those most marginalized in the City of Portland. PCCEP began in 2018 as a revised configuration of the COAB (Community Oversight Advisory Board) that was formed as a result of the federal Department of Justice (DOJ) settlement agreement with the City of Portland. PCCEP members and staff have hosted well over 100 public meetings since 2018 (subcommittee and general body) to elevate community input on the City of Portland’s policing. The mission of PCCEP is to work with the Mayor/Police Commissioner, Portland Police Bureau, and Portland’s diverse constituencies to solicit and exchange information between the community and Portland Police Bureau to achieve the desired outcomes of equitable policing which exceeds constitutional requirements, and meaningful community engagement with and trust in the police. PCCEP is a group of Portland community members who work together to not only achieve equitable policing through facilitating conversation and via recommendation, but also to be a mechanism of information sharing between the City, Portland Police Bureau, and the Portland community. PCCEP membership represents the diverse communities of Portland, particularly those historically marginalized or excluded. PCCEP continues to facilitate community input into policing, including making and reviewing recommendations on Police Bureau policies touching the DOJ Settlement Agreement including policing exceeding constitutional standards, use of force, interactions with people experiencing mental illnesses, complaint investigations, and racial justice. PCCEP also can create recommendations on police directives, policies, and practices beyond the topics addressed in the Settlement Agreement. Equity Impacts PCCEP elevates the voice of the community both by having members who represent Portland’s diverse communities, and through community engagement directly with members of the public, which helps improve trust between the City of Portland and the community.

Office of the Public Safety DCA Public Safety Service Area Portland Street Response Program Description & Goals Portland Street Response (PSR) is designed to serve as a new responder for community members in crisis. The role of the Bureau of Emergency Communications (Emergency Communications) is to dispatch Police, Fire, or AMR if the call relates to saving a life, reporting a fire, a medical emergency, or reporting a crime. For other non-life-threatening scenarios previously responded to by Police or Fire (such as behavioral health issues and welfare checks), where a person is outside and possibly experiencing a mental health crisis, intoxicated, and/or drug affected, PSR is dispatched as an unarmed, first responder team, trained in behavioral health and related on-scene medical assistance. PSR’s response enables greater capacity for the City’s Police and Fire resources to attend to lifesaving and crime-related calls for help. The service provides quick and compassionate response by a diverse team of individuals trained in crisis management, behavioral health, substance use, and on-scene medical evaluations. Portland Street Response is expected to fulfill the following goals:  Reduce the number of calls traditionally responded to by Police where criminal activity is not present.  Reduce the number of individuals transported to the emergency department for low acuity mental and behavior crisis issues that could instead be addressed in a pre-hospital care setting.  Reduce the number of calls traditionally responded to by Police and Fire. PSR provides first response crisis intervention for non-criminal, non-life-threatening 9-1-1 calls that pertain to mental health, substance use/intoxication, and welfare check calls. Portland Street Response offers two services at this time: First Response: An EMT-Basic co-responds with a Mental Health Crisis Responder and Peer Support Specialist to non-emergency, non-life threatening 9-1-1 calls for assistance pertaining to mental health, substance use/intoxication, and welfare check calls. Services this team provides include de-escalation, counseling for crisis, conflict resolution, grief and loss, and substance use/intoxication; intervention to services, first aid and non-emergency medical care; and facilitates transportation to treatment services. City of Portland | FY2025-26 Requested Budget 9

Office of the Public Safety DCA Public Safety Service Area Aftercare Services: In addition to the first responders arriving on scene, PSR offers continued support to help individuals get connected to services beyond the 9-1-1 call. These services are provided by Community Health Workers and Peer Support Specialists and include resource connection and referrals for housing, mental health, and substance use services; transportation to services; support; and advocacy. Aftercare support for individuals may last up to three months and occasionally longer when there is need.

Bob Day, Chief of Police Public Safety Service Area Behavioral Health Program Description & Goals The mission of the Behavioral Health Unit is to improve public safety, reinforce community livability, and increase quality of life by coordinating the response of law enforcement and the behavioral health system to aid people in behavioral crisis resulting from known or suspected mental illness and/or drug and alcohol addiction. This supports the City’s goal to ensure a safe and peaceful community and the Bureau’s goal of crime reduction and prevention. It also serves as an element of the strategy to sustain compliance with the terms of the Settlement Agreement between the City and the U.S. Department of Justice with respect to Civil Rights under 42 USC section 14141. The Behavioral Health Unit oversees the four tiers of police response to individuals with mental illness or in behavioral crisis: core competency of Crisis Intervention Training (CIT) for all patrol officers; Enhanced Crisis Intervention Team (ECIT), a group of volunteer officers that respond to mental health crisis calls; proactive Behavioral Health Response Teams (BHRT); and the Service Coordination Team. As primary responders to crisis calls, all Portland Police Bureau officers receive basic Crisis Intervention Training as well as annual CIT refresher training. In addition, the Bureau has volunteer officers from a variety of patrol assignments on the Enhanced Crisis Intervention Team (ECIT). These officers are often the responders dispatched by 9-1-1 to crisis calls that are determined to be related to an individual with mental illness. ECIT officers receive additional training in order to identify risks during a behavioral crisis, utilize crisis communication techniques to help deescalate a person in crisis, and have knowledge of available community resources to divert individuals to receive appropriate care. Police Bureau’s Office of the Inspector General found that force was used in approximately one percent of ECIT calls for service in 2022. The Behavioral Health Response Teams (BHRT) pair a patrol officer and a qualified mental health professional. As of FY 2022-23, the Portland Police Bureau was approved to increase to five BHRT teams. Because of limited staffing levels, the BHU was not able to fill all five BHRT positions until early 2023. The officers and mental health professionals work proactively with individuals who have a mental illness and are identified as having multiple or high-risk contacts with police. The BHRT teams work to connect individuals to appropriate community resources in order to reduce their frequency of contact with police. Referrals to the BHRT teams are made through patrol officers. Since 2014, BHU’s rate of assignment for referrals is typically between 40% and 50%. BHRT intervention is associated with reduced total police contacts and arrests/custodies.

Several aspects of this program are specifically tailored to de-escalation with individuals identified as having multiple or high-risk contacts with police and to providing assistance to individuals with behavioral health and/or substance abuse issues. Changes to Program Prior to February 2021, the BHU had authorization for five Behavioral Health Response Teams (BHRT). During 2021, because of staffing shortages, there was a reduction of BHRT units from five to three, which is the minimum required to stay in compliance with the US DOJ Settlement Agreement. During the FY 2021-22 Fall BMP, Council approved a budget to restore staffing capacity to five BHRTs. The restored BHRTs allow for more outreach to vulnerable populations, such as homeless individuals. Additionally, as part of the FY 2022-23 Budget, Council authorized the transition of the five contracted clinician positions to City of Portland employee positions. The Behavioral Health Unit (BHU) includes a total of five Mental Health Crisis Responder II (MHCR II) positions. Each MHCR II works in tandem with a sworn Portland Police Officer to form the five Behavioral Health Response Teams (BHRT). The current deployment is as follows:  Three BHRTs are dedicated to working with individuals referred by the Central, East, and North Precincts, with one team assigned to each precinct.  One BHRT focuses on targeted threat cases in collaboration with the Multnomah County Threat Advisory Team (MCTAT).  The remaining BHRT is dedicated to serving the homeless/houseless population.

Bob Day, Chief of Police Public Safety Service Area Business Services Program Description & Goals This program delivers finance, logistics, operations, and a set of organizational management services for the Bureau. The Business Services Division (BSD) staffs the activities of this program. The Business Services Division provides financial leadership and expertise to the Bureau to enable compliance of financially oriented legal and policy requirements and to support the Bureau’s goal of managing and accounting for all resources in an effective, efficient, and transparent manner. Business Services provides expert professional advice and assistance to Bureau management on a broad range of complex financing, budgeting, policy, and procedural matters. Business Services has direct oversight of the following areas: financial planning, analysis, and reporting; preparation and management of the Police Bureau budget; grant management and compliance; purchasing, including contract development and setup; ordinance preparation and filing; accounting; payroll; and SAP change management. Several of the areas under BSD’s management are elements of the Enterprise Support program. The Business Services Division supports the City’s goals of ensuring a safe and peaceful community and delivering efficient, effective, and accountable municipal services. It supports the Bureau’s goals of crime reduction and prevention, community engagement and inclusion, and organizational excellence. There are no performance measures associated with this program. Equity Impacts The Business Operations section manages the procurement and contracting process for the Bureau, providing support to all other departments with these actions. Established elements of the City’s procurement policies that bear on equity in the selection process are highlighted by Business Operations to ensure that the Bureau’s process provides access to minority, woman owned, and emerging and small businesses. Changes to Program During the FY 2022-23 Adopted Budget, a substantial realignment decision package moved many of the positions in this program to the Public Safety Service Area (PSSA). There is minimal impact to internal Bureau services expected; however, this marks a step towards identifying efficiencies and strategies to meet the community’s public safety service demand at a lower cost. There are no significant changes included in the FY 2025-26 Adopted Budget.
