SFPD Chief's Community Police Advisory Forum (CCPAF) 2025
As a commitment to procedural justice, the Department has instituted the Chief’s Community Police Advisory Forum (CCPAF) in 2023 to expand community policing, problem-solving, and community engagement throughout the city.
The CCPAF is a group of civilian volunteers from the residential and business communities of San Francisco. Its role is to identify issues and challenges affecting their respective community and advise the Department about possible solutions. The CCPAF’s overall commitment is to create a forum for open discussion to problem-solve issues and challenges with a goal of improving the safety of residents, visitors, and communities across the city.
The CCPAF is made up of the Chief of Police, one Department member from the Community Engagement Division (CED), and individuals from the San Francisco community who bring unique skills, knowledge, experience, and networks with them. Together, they make up the whole Forum and define its composition. Please refer to the Chief’s Directive and a video message from Chief Scott, linked below, for further information on the CCPAF.
The Department is currently accepting applications from members of the San Francisco community for the position of Chief’s Community Advisor for the 2025-2027 CCPAF term. Interested community members may apply by clicking on the link below and completing the CCPAF application. Applications will be accepted for 30 calendar days, starting November 1st and concluding on December 1st at 5 PM. The first CCPAF meeting is scheduled for Thursday, January 9, 2025, at 6 PM at the San Francisco Police Headquarters.
