About the Police Foundation

The Police Foundation is an independent non-profit, non-partisan institution based in Washington, D.C. that has been advancing policing through innovation and science for nearly half a century, and works to translate those findings to practice through technical assistance, training, and dissemination.

About Leo Near Miss

The LEO Near Miss is a near miss reporting system for law enforcement officers that was initiated by the Police Foundation in 2013. It is modeled on the International Association of Fire Chiefs’ (IAFC) near miss reporting program, and it is funded by the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) Office at the Department of Justice.
