Report on the YPD’s Activity

In collaboration with BSDY and COGs with contributions from EJC, RCCS, and BLSA, YUPP’s 45-page report on the Yale Police Department analyzes data from YPD’s own crime logs, call logs, and the FBI’s crime reporting program. The report details the YPD’s focus on property and assets, the departments inefficiency even by their own standards, and indicates their irrelevance to the safety of the Yale and New Haven community.
