A court-appointed monitor overseeing Ferguson’s agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice is asking residents to participate in a survey on police-community relations.
The Ferguson Monitoring Team and the National Police Foundation are conducting the Ferguson Community Survey. It is a requirement of the 2016 consent decree to settle a civil rights lawsuit between the city of Ferguson and the U.S. Department of Justice.
With the survey, Ferguson residents can inform the city of Ferguson and its police department about police and court practices to better serve the community, said Courtney Caruso, deputy to the lead monitor of the Ferguson Monitoring Team.
