Buffalo Police Advisory Board Needs Your Help

The independent committee of Buffalo residents that is tasked with helping to oversee the Buffalo Police Department is looking to fill some available positions.

In 2018, the Buffalo Common Council created the Police Advisory Board with the goal of increasing transparency and accountability surrounding the oversight of the police.

The all-volunteer Advisory Board is looking for residents of the City, who have a deep concern about the well being of its citizens and want to make a difference.

We consult with Buffalo residents and advocate on their behalf by making recommendations to the Common Council and Buffalo Police Department about how policing and community-police relationships can be improved.
