Miramar, FL body-worn cameras for civilian police members

Complete

The City of Miramar's Police Department implemented a Body Worn Camera Program to improve public safety and demonstrate transparency to the community. After two years, the city decided to expand its body-worn camera program becoming the first in the country to include civilian members of the department. The city expanded the program to include Code Officers and Community Service Aides to build trust with the public because they can be easily confused with sworn law enforcement officers.
