Title: The U.S. Park Police: Aligning Mission, Priorities, and Resources

Summary: "The U.S. Park Police, in conjunction with the Department of the Interior and National Park Service, must clarify its mission and set realistic priorities to effectively meet its responsibilities to protect the public and our national treasures in this post-9/11 world. In The U.S. Park Police: Aligning Mission, Priorities and Resources, an Academy Panel found that the Park Police cannot be an effective guardian of urban national parks and also attempt to be a full-service urban police force with currently available resources. This follow-up report to a previous 2001 Academy Panel report on the Park Police also found that little progress had been made in implementing the most critical 2001 Panel recommendations. Active and committed leadership from all three agencies is essential to implement the Panel's current recommendations for resolving these long-standing Park Police management issues."
