Scott Mourtgos and I were recently invited to present some of our research during a webinar hosted by the Canadian Association of Police Governance. According to their website:

The Canadian Association of Police Governance (CAPG) is the only national organization dedicated to excellence in police governance in Canada. Since 1989, the CAPG has worked diligently to achieve the highest standards as the national voice of civilian oversight of municipal police. We have grown to represent 80% of municipal police services throughout Canada.

Here are some of the studies we discussed:

• Turnover in large US policing agencies following the George Floyd protests - by Ian Adams, Scott, and me
• A Large-Scale Study of the Police Retention Crisis - by Ben Grunwald
• Police stops to reduce crime: A systematic review and meta‐analysis by Kevin Petersen et al.
• Disorder policing to reduce crime: An updated systematic review and meta‐analysis by Anthony Braga et al.
• Does Hot Spots Policing Have Meaningful Impacts on Crime? Findings from An Alternative Approach to Estimating Effect Sizes from Place-Based Program Evaluations by Anthony Braga and David Weisburd

• What matters in citizen satisfaction with police: A meta-analysis by Michelle Bolger et al.
