Anti Police-Terror Project

The Anti Police-Terror Project is a Black-led, multi-racial, intergenerational, California-based, but national acting, organization that seeks to build replicable and sustainable models to eradicate police terror in communities of color. We support families surviving police terror in their fight for justice, documenting police abuses and connecting impacted families and community members with resources, legal referrals, and opportunities for healing. Additionally, APTP engages in efforts of radical reform to how the United States defines and enacts public safety through policy, communications and building alternative models.
