What is a responsibility of the community advisory board?

The responsibility of the community advisory board is to provide recommendations on policing strategies. This board typically consists of community members who collaborate with law enforcement to highlight community concerns and enhance police practices. By serving as a bridge between the community and the police department, the advisory board can gather input and feedback that inform better policing strategies, ensuring that they align with the needs and values of the community they serve.

The other options are not accurate representations of the board's role. Setting police department budgets is primarily the responsibility of the city or municipal government, not the advisory board. Conducting internal investigations of officers falls under the purview of internal affairs or similar departments within the police force, who handle disciplinary actions and investigations. While handling public relations may involve community engagement efforts, it typically is managed by the police department’s designated public relations team rather than being a function of the advisory board.
