A Civilian Review Board is an independent body that oversees and investigates complaints against law enforcement agencies. Its primary purpose is to ensure accountability and transparency in policing by allowing civilians to have a say in how police conduct is monitored and evaluated. These boards often review cases of alleged misconduct and can recommend disciplinary actions. Members of a Civilian Review Board are typically community members who are not part of the police force. They work to build trust between the community and law enforcement, aiming to improve police practices and enhance public confidence in the justice system.
