The protests in the aftermath of George Floyd’s murder called for the reexamination of the relationship between schools and law enforcement. This presentation discusses the efforts of a diverse group of community activists in Fort Collins to end the contract between the local school district and law enforcement.

The presenters are activist-scholars at CSU and members of the School Justice PSD coalition. Their work combines academic research, the experiences of students, and lobbying efforts by students, parents, and community members. This case study will describe the steps that bring all of these elements together into action.
