Preview Report

LEO Near Miss is a national near miss reporting system that enables law enforcement officers across the country to study and anonymously report near miss incidents. The system was funded by the COPS Office and developed by the National Policing Institute in collaboration with other national law enforcement organizations. The system is modeled after successful near miss reporting systems used in other high-risk industries.

The National Policing Institute (NPI) is a non-profit research organization based in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Area. NPI serves as the administrator of the LEO Near Miss system, independent from all other government and law enforcement bodies to ensure near miss reporting is non-punitive and remains exclusively focused on improving operational safety in law enforcement.
