Public Safety Personnel Diversity Task Force

Mayor Ballard Announces Public Safety Personnel Diversity Task Force

Mayor Greg Ballard announced today the creation of the Mayor's Public Safety Personnel Diversity Task Force. The task force is charged to review the recruitment, hiring, and promotional practices and policies within the Indianapolis Fire Department and the Indiana Metropolitan Police Department to recommend further improvements that will ensure the City's public safety forces reflect the diversity within the Indianapolis community.

The Mayor intends to announce the members of the task force in the coming weeks along with an Executive Order creating the task force. Open public meetings are expected to begin in April.
