How are CRB Members selected?
The Citizens’ Review Board on Police Practices is composed entirely of volunteers. All members must be at least 18 years of age and reside in the city of San Diego. Applicants are screened and interviewed by a selection committee made up of Board Members and community leaders who make recommendations to the Mayor who makes all appointments to the CRB. After final selection and prior to submission to the Mayor, all applicants undergo a background check. CRB Members are a representative cross-section of the San Diego community and must possess solid research, speaking and listening skills. Board Members average 20+ hours of volunteer time each month.
