Woodstock Police Chief joined Heart FM to talk about the newly formed Woodstock Anti-Racism Advisory Committee.
WOODSTOCK - The Woodstock Anti-Racism Advisory Committee hopes to improve understanding of diverse races and culture in the Friendly City.
The committee is co-chaired by the organizer of the Black Lives Matter protest in June Jessica Hofstetter and Police Chief Daryl Longworth.
WARAC promotes collaboration between the WPS and multiracial and multicultural communities to combat and eliminate racism and foster values that seek to understand the unique identities of all races and cultures in the City of Woodstock. WARAC will also provide guidance and insight for ways of improving and strengthening relationships between WPS and racialized communities in the City.
WARAC’s goals include to:
- Provide counsel and enhance, enrich and establish positive connections between the office of the Chief of Police and the multiracial/multicultural communities within the City;
- Assist and guide the development of a Diversity Plan for the WPS;
- Guide and facilitate anti-racism and bias-awareness training to be delivered to WPS members
