Get Started: Info for Advocacy Groups
The CPLE is happy to help advocacy groups that would like to connect with leading scholars on social justice. For example, a group that advocates for Muslim Rights may contact us with the hope of learning what research exists on the issue of religious freedom within policing. Or, perhaps a department has initiated a collaboration with a group, but there’s a research component that neither are equipped to fulfill. If the law enforcement partner wants research help, we are happy to step in.
For all inquiries, please contact Assistant Director Meredith Gamson Smiedt to discuss further via email at mgsmiedt@psych.ucla.edu or by phone at 310-206-3467.
