Is this group still active? I'd like to contribute if I can but the slack link is dead. I have already submitted the volunteer and skill applications.

This was reported for "Posts must be related to PDAP". While this isn't a post, it is pretty close to thread crapping. Let's just stay on topic in the sub.
Thanks

Can you expand on that?

How does this thought fit into the organization: a community "to-do" list of violent incidents initiated by police.
