On October 15th, CPR and the Public Science Project released We Deserve to Be Safe, a report that explores how New Yorkers living in heavily policed communities understand and experience safety. This powerful report is the result of over a year-long participatory research project that was led and coordinated by CPR members and supported by a number of partner organizations and represents one of the largest studies ever conducted on public safety – surveying over 3000 New Yorkers about their experiences and opinions on policing, crisis response and city funding for safety programs and infrastructure.

Thanks to citywide organizing led by those most impacted by the NYPD’s abusive practices – and the leadership of City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams and lead sponsors Public Advocate Jumaane Williams, Council Member Alexa Avilés and Council Member Crystal Hudson – the City Council passed the How Many Stops Act, overriding the Mayor's veto.

As of July 1st, 2024, the How Many Stops Act - now law - is in effect.
