The Civilian Complaint Review Board (“CCRB”) is charged with investigating, mediating, and
prosecuting complaints which members of the public file against New York City police officers alleging
the use of force, abuse of authority, discourtesy, offensive language, untruthful statements made by
officers, and racial profiling and biased policing. The Board consists of 15 members who are
appointed by the Mayor, the City Council and Public Advocate or designated by the police
commissioner. The Board is responsible for governing the agency. The Executive Director is
responsible for the day-to-day operations of the agency. As the largest police oversight agency in the
United States, the CCRB currently investigates approximately 4,500 complaints each year.

In April 2021, the New York City Council passed Local Law 47, which clarified that the CCRB has the authority, under its abuse of authority jurisdiction to investigate civilian complaints against New York City police officers alleging racial profiling and other forms of biased policing based on race, ethnicity, color, national origin, religion, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability, immigration, or housing status.

To execute this newly clarified authority, the CCRB has created a Racial Profiling and Biased Policing (“RPBP”) Investigations Unit. The RPBP Unit has built a team of skilled and experienced investigators, investigating attorneys, and data analysts to handle these biased policing cases, which are often unique and complex. The RPBP Unit’s investigations include quantitative analysis of various NYPD datasets to identify potential patterns of biased conduct. To help support this work, the RPBP Unit seeks a part-time Data Analyst Intern.

The Data Analyst Intern’s responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

- Compiling and cleaning various NYPD and New York City datasets
- Analyzing NYPD datasets to identify potential patterns of biased police conduct
- Presenting findings clearly to non-technical audiences
- Creating maps to aid investigations of civilian complaints
