- Advisory Group for Obama’s Pledge (AGOP)
As part of the UniteMalden 2020 initiative, Mayor Gary Christenson answered the Obama Foundation’s call to action by signing the “Reimagining Policing Pledge.” The focus of this pledge is to work with the Malden Police Department (MPD) and the community to review use of force policies. A community advisory group has been formed (the Advisory Group for Obama’s Pledge (AGOP)) to leverage their experiences and backgrounds to provide community input on the current MPD Use of Force Policy. The process consists of the following 4 steps:
AGOP will keep the public updated as the process moves forward and will be asking for community input. There will also be minutes posted on the website and the community is encouraged to reach out with any suggestions at AGOP@cityofmalden.org.
