Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

LOS ANGELES POLICE FOUNDATION (LAPF) WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1998 BY A GROUP OF CONCERNED COMMUNITY LEADERS TO FUND URGENTLY NEEDED PROGRAMS AND EQUIPMENT FOR THE LOS ANGELES POLICE DEPARTMENT (LAPD). THE MISSION OF LAPF IS TO CREATE PARTNERSHIPS TO PROVIDE RESOURCES AND VITAL SUPPORT TO THE LAPD.

Activities or mission (Part I)

TO PROVIDE RESOURCES THAT HELP THE LAPD AND TO ENHANCE LAPD-COMMUNITY RELATIONS.

  • THE LOS ANGELES POLICE FOUNDATION (LAPF) IS AN INDEPENDENT, NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT PROVIDES CRITICAL RESOURCES AND VITAL SUPPORT TO LAPD.WITH 96% OF LAPD'S BUDGET SPENT ON PERSONNEL, THERE IS LITTLE LEFT FOR EQUIPMENT AND TECHNOLOGY UPGRADES, SPECIALIZED TRAINING, COMMUNITY OUTREACH, AND YOUTH PROGRAMS.THE LAPF HAS DONATED MORE THAN $50,000,000 TO LAPD IN THE AREAS OF EQUIPMENT AND TECHNOLOGY UPGRADES, SPECIALIZED TRAINING, COMMUNITY OUTREACH AND YOUTH PROGRAMS.A FEW OF THE GRANTS APPROVED IN 2022 ARE HIGHLIGHTED BELOW:ABLE TRAINING - $1,000,000FUNDING FOR THIS GRANT IS TO TRAIN THE 12,000+ MEMBERS OF THE DEPARTMENT IN ACTIVE BYSTANDERSHIP FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT(ABLE). THE ABLE PROJECT IS MANAGED BY GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY AND SEEKS TO BUILD SKILLS FOR SUPPORTING PEER INTERVENTION THROUGH SCENARIO TRAINING. THE PROJECT HAS CREATED NATIONAL STANDARDS AND TRAINING CURRICULUM TO TEACH LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES THE STRATEGIES AND TACTICS FOR EFFECTIVE AND EARLY INTERVENTION.ACCORDING TO THE RESEARCH, THE BENEFITS OF MEANINGFUL ACTIVE BYSTANDERSHIP TRAINING ARE SIGNIFICANT, AND INCLUDE: REDUCED UNNECESSARY HARM TO CIVILIANS IMPROVED POLICE/COMMUNITY RELATIONS REDUCED UNNECESSARY HARM TO OFFICERS IMPROVED OFFICER HEALTH AND WELLNESS REDUCED RISK OF OFFICERS LOSING THEIR JOBS IMPROVED OFFICER JOB SATISFACTION REDUCED RISK OF LAWSUITS AGAINST THE DEPARTMENT, THE CITY, AND INDIVIDUAL OFFICERS IMPROVED CITIZEN SATISFACTION WITH THEIR LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCYSWAT UNMANNED GROUND VEHICLE SPOT - $277,918USE OF THE UGV WOULD ENHANCE OFFICER SAFETY, WHILE ALSO REDUCING THE POTENTIAL FOR VIOLENT ENCOUNTERS WITH ARMED INDIVIDUALS WHEN DEALING WITH HIGH-RISK INCIDENTS. THE UGV WOULD PREVENT THE NEED TO INSERT A SWAT OFFICER OR CANINE INTO SPACES WHERE AN ARMED INDIVIDUAL COULD BE HIDDEN DESPITE THE INTRODUCTION OF CHEMICAL AGENTS. THE INFRARED CAMERA, AS WELL AS PAYLOAD CAPABILITY WOULD ADD AN ADDITIONAL LAYER OF SAFETY PRIOR TO INSERTING SWAT OR CANINES. SWAT CURRENTLY USES OTHER TERRESTRIAL ROBOTS, BUT EACH RELIES ON TRACKS OR WHEELS WHICH CAN BECOME ENTANGLED. THIS UGV'S DESIGN MIMICS THAT OF A LIVE CANINE WITHOUT THE NEED TO HAVE A HANDLER OR COVER OFFICERS.OSB HUMAN TRAFFICKING CAMERA UPGRADE - $13,609.27THIS GRANT UPGRADED FOUR EXISTING CAMERAS ON FIGUEROA STREET BETWEEN 66TH STREET AND 84TH PLACE. THE OSB HUMAN TRAFFICKING TASK FORCE UTILIZES THE CAMERAS ON A CONSISTENT BASIS TO MONITOR MINORS AND VICTIMS OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING. THE EXISTING CAMERAS WERE INSTALLED IN 2010 AND ARE NO LONGER FUNCTIONING AS INTENDED AND HAVE NO TECHNICAL SUPPORT. UPGRADING THESE CAMERAS TO HIGH-DEFINITION CAMERAS WOULD ALLOW FOR CONTINUAL SURVEILLANCE AND REDUCE AND DETER CRIMINAL ACTIVITY.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

Schedule J

Answered yes

  • 3 · Compensation committee
  • 7 · Other non-fixed payments

Answered no

  • 4a · Severance or change-of-control payment
  • 4b · Supplemental nonqualified retirement plan
  • 4c · Equity-based compensation arrangement
  • 5a · Pay contingent on this organization's revenues
  • 5b · Pay contingent on a related organization's revenues
  • 6a · Pay contingent on this organization's net earnings
  • 6b · Pay contingent on a related organization's net earnings
