SBF Provides Seed Funds for Police Training Project

February 1, 2013 By SBF Admin

SBF provided initial seed funds for a new police training project that grew out of the death of Amelie Le Moullac and botched police investigation (see November 2013 entry). This SFBC asked San Francisco Supervisor Jane Kim, in whose district Amelie was killed, to hold a hearing on police practices when bicycles are involved in crashes. Many bike riders involved in crashes told the Supervisors they had been blamed for crashes that clearly weren’t their fault. The SFBC project will train police officers in how to enforce vehicle code provisions and conduct investigations when bicycles are involved.

About Sylvia

“My most moving volunteer experience was working with underprivileged residents of New Haven through National Student Partnerships (NSP), which links college students to people in need. I helped people research jobs online, write resumes, and locate appropriate social services.”
