The Law Enforcement Accountability Project is the first law school project of its kind in Canada.
The Law Enforcement Accountability Project is a student-led research initiative designed to provide confidential research on issues surrounding police accountability and racial profiling, said its academic director, law professor David Tanovich.
Research results will be provided to government, oversight agencies, community groups, human rights agencies, universities, and police services, serving to increase public awareness, particularly in Windsor and Essex County, of issues surrounding the new police complaints process in Ontario.
The project's Web site (www.uwindsor.ca/leap) provides information about community outreach initiatives, the filing of a police complaint, relevant case law and reports surrounding issues of police accountability and racial profiling. Organizers also encourage interested parties to contribute to a blog, www.windsorlaw-leap.blogspot.com
