My team was supposed to host a BRIDGE event in Houston tomorrow, on alternative police response models. The goal was to spur new research on how to help police and related orgs improve their operations and address crises more effectively, given limited resources.
That event is officially a casualty of the IAH airport chaos. We’ll try to reschedule.
