Policing in Allegheny County (PACC)
Policing in Allegheny County (PACC) is an initiative, regarding police accountability, of Take Action Mon Valley (TAMV). TAMV mission is to combat ALL forms of community violence through activism and organizing. PACC is made up of local advocacy groups, organizations and individuals. We are presently working on developing demands to address how COVID-19 has affected people and staff in ACJ as well as the gathering care packages for people when they are released from ACJ. In addition, collecting data and community input on how policing is being done in this pandemic throughout Allegheny County.
Vision
Encourage and empower Allegheny County residents to recognize their power to restore their communities from the damaging effects of over-policing and move toward a county less dependent on the police.
