Improving the relationship between police and the people they serve has been a priority for Fort Worth for the past several years, and a new survey is a chance for the community to say whether they've seen any changes.
"We just want to make sure that our police department is the best one in the country, and so I think as much as we can do to collaborate – police, community, city leaders, our office – to collaborate and work on that common goal, I think the better we can be in the long run," said Kim Neal, the director of the Office of the Police Oversight Monitor.
Last week, a critical report found officers are consistently failing to de-escalate situations and use force when it's not needed. "They also saw that the policies and procedures around use of force were good policies and procedures," said Neal."Their concern was it following all the way through practice, through training."
Since her office was created in 2020, a lot of the focus has been on use of force. Neal believes Fort Worth police have made significant improvements.
