class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Overview<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In February 2022, 快播视频 formed an internal expert panel to undertake a review of its security services and to develop an alternative security services model for the University.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The security services review emerged in response to a long history of concerns from equity-deserving groups about security activity at 快播视频, including feelings of racial discrimination and harassment, shared experiences of racial profiling and surveillance on campus and general lack of support.&nbsp;&nbsp;In response, York released its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/abr\/action-plan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Action Plan on Black <\/em>inclusion<em>: A Living Document for Action<\/em><\/a> in December 2021 and identified a thorough review of York\u2019s security services as a commitment and action.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following a one-year review period, York\u2019s internal expert panel completed its review of the University\u2019s security services and provided a number of recommendations to transition York to an alternative security services model.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Read the report now:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Summary Report <strong><a
