CPE Issues a Statement on Work Completed in Norfolk, Virginia

The Center for Policing Equity (CPE) extends its sincerest gratitude to the Norfolk Police Department (NPD), the municipal leaders and engaged residents of Norfolk, whose enthusiastic involvement has been integral to this endeavor as our multi-year partnership through the COMPSTAT for Justice (C4J) program ends. Our joint efforts mark the close of a significant chapter, one in which we have witnessed collective dedication to enhancing community welfare. 

We recognize and commend the contributions of Chief Talbot, who gracefully assumed a critical role during a period of transition, and we appreciate the department’s openness to continuous dialogue that has been insightful since the inception of our partnership in 2021. Public safety systems are shaped to be strongest when the community is involved. We have complete confidence that the greater Norfolk community will continue this work and CPE will remain an available resource for any future collaborative efforts. 

The Center for Policing Equity (CPE) extends its sincerest gratitude to the Norfolk community, whose active engagement, eagerness, and excitement has been fundamental to this endeavor as our multi-year partnership through the COMPSTAT for Justice (C4J) program and Norfolk Police Department ends. 


We acknowledge and commend your commitment and dedication to improve Public Safety in Norfolk, appreciate your transparency, and continuous participation and dialogue throughout this collaborative process. Although our partnership with NPD has come to an end, we remain committed to the Norfolk community and are an available resource for collaborative efforts.
