A MESSAGE FROM THE NEW YORK CITY
CIVILIAN COMPLAINT REVIEW BOARD
The Civilian Complaint Review Board (CCRB) is the City agency that investigates complaints from the public about police misconduct. We are an independent City agency and not a part of the Police Department. The CCRB investigates complaints about unnecessary or excessive force, abuse of authority (such as an improper stop or frisk), discourtesy and offensive language. You have several options to file a complaint with the CCRB:
- File online through our website, at www.nyc.gov/ccrb and click on "How to File a Complaint" on the left hand side of the page.
- Come to our offices at 40 Rector Street, 2nd floor, New York, NY, 10006, from Monday-Friday, between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.
- Send a letter to the address above.
- Call 311 anytime and they will direct your call to us.
If you would like a speaker from the CCRB to come to your community center or any other group, please contact Dawn Fuentes, the CCRB's Director of Community Relations at dfuentes@ccrb.nyc.gov or (212) 442-8848.
