AI Policy Template

AI systems are already shaping public safety decisions — but without a clear internal policy, agencies risk legal liability, operational confusion, and loss of public trust.

‍

The AI Policy Template from ClearCouncil provides a proven structure for governing AI use across departments. Developed by legal and law enforcement professionals, the policy includes foundational clauses for oversight, transparency, risk classification, procurement controls, and public disclosure.

‍

This download is ideal for agencies implementing their first AI tool or formalizing standards across multiple deployments. It aligns with the ClearCouncil readiness framework and is easily adapted to your local environment.
