Born out of the Black community's demand for fair representation under the law during the Jim Crow era, our institution preserves history and transforms it into a platform for education, prevention, and empowerment. As a cultural institution, we understand that history alone cannot safeguard our communities; it must be paired with accessible legal knowledge and practical decision -making tools. The Knowing The Law initiative is a culturally responsive public education initiative designed to empower youth and community members through critical legal awareness, civic understanding, and behavioral insight. Designed by Terrance Cribbs-Lorrant and brought to the City of Miami Black Police Precinct and Courthouse Museum as a tool to demystify law enforcement interactions, enhance knowledge of individual rights, and promote safer, informed decision -making, particularly among Black and Brown communities. By blending historical context, practical legal education, and open dialogue, the project bridges the gap between citizens and the legal system, encouraging proactive, respectful engagement while addressing systemic mistrust and fostering a shared responsibility for safer communities. We present not simply a program, but the proven capacity to design, deliver, and evaluate initiatives that achieve measurable results. Over a five-year pilot phase (2019-2024), Knowing The Law directly engaged more than 4,500 residents and school -age students through guided tours, exhibit presentations, and civic forums. Managed through the museum's educational programs, Retired and Reserve officers from the City of Miami Police Department and County Sheriff's Office, the initiative has been built in collaboration with the Miami Community Police. Benevolent Association, local schools, neighborhood associations, and faith-based..organizations. 2 Developed in consultation with community stakeholders, the program is culturally grounded, ensuring relevance, trust, and accessibility for diverse Black and Brown populations. The museum possesses the infrastructure, human capital, and methodology required to scale Knowing The Law to meet the scope of this one (1) year proposal. Our curriculum integrates historical context, relevant Florida law, and scenario -based learning to enhance comprehension and application. Instruction is delivered by a qualified team of educators, former law enforcement officers, and legal advisors trained to facilitate sensitive discussions. We integrate data driven decision [D3] to inform expected behaviors, with pre- and post -assessments showing an average 46% increase in legal knowledge. Our facility, equipped with classroom space, multimedia technology, and curated exhibits serves as an immersive learning environment, supported by multilingual outreach strategies to ensure robust participation. Pilot results confirm our readiness: 25+ workgroups across summer camps, community centers, and museum exhibits; a 22% reduction in self -reported risky behaviors among youth participants; and documented improvements in civic confidence and decision -making. The Knowing The Law program is not theoretical —it is a tested model with demonstrated outcomes. Coupling historical legitimacy with contemporary program expertise, we are prepared to launch immediately upon award, ensuring participants gain the awareness and education needed to make smarter, safer choices. 3 Experience Past Performance The Knowing the Law Project was originally conceived as a pedagogical tool to enhance the capacity of museum docents and educational facilitators who lacked formal legal training or prior experience in law enforcement. Initially designed as a "quick -reference" guide, it served as a supplementary resource during guided historical tours of the museum, tours that frequently prompted visitors to inquire about contemporary encounters with law enforcement, often in connection to personal experiences or incidents encountered through social media. By late 2018, the museum reintroduced the nationally recognized program What Do You Do When You Get Stopped by the Police, a best -practice framework developed in 2015 by the National Association of Black Law Enforcement Officers. This initiative emerged in direct response to the growing national discourse on police —community relations. The program was implemented through 60-minute, community -centered focus groups convened both on -site at the museum and in off -site partner venues. These sessions were exclusively facilitated by certified law enforcement professionals with specialized training in traffic enforcement and/or domestic violence intervention. While demand for these focus groups was consistently high, the limited number of qualified volunteer officers constrained the museum's ability to meet community interest at scale. In September 2022, in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the museum was awarded a $275,000 City Commission approved operational grant renewable annually through September 2026 for a total not to exceed $1.1 million. In response, the museum director proposed a strategic expansion of programming to address ongoing community calls for improved policing practices and greater public understanding of the historical significance of the Black Police Precinct. This vision included scaling the museum's educational initiatives through the appointment of a former City of Miami Police Officer (an African American woman), a project and curriculum specialist, a curator of history, and a social media manager, alongside the curation of six new exhibits —four of which would be incorporated into the museum's permanent collection of artifacts and oral histories. 4 Notable Accomplishment • 2022- `Black Citizenship In the Age of Jim Crow" annex exhibit from History Miami curated by Christopher Barfield (CBarfield@historyMiami.org) and assistant curator Anita Francios (AFrancios(aiHistoryMiami.orR) .

Similarly, a 2019 Pew Research study on Americans' attitudes toward privacy policies found that only 37% of adults say they understand these laws at least somewhat, with 33% responding "somewhat" and just 3% saying "a great deal." Conversely, 63% admitted to understanding privacy laws very little or not at all. These findings highlight a significant gap in legal literacy and awareness of basic laws that impact how you navigate throughout the day. Many people lack knowledge not only about national or abstract laws but also about everyday, local regulations that directly affect their lives; making it more likely they may unknowingly break the law. Since ignorance of the law is not a valid excuse, education is crucial. The Knowing The Law Project addresses this need by: AWARENESS 1. Providing clear, relatable education about legal rights and responsibilities. 2. Correcting common misconceptions, such as misunderstandings about civil legal counsel and local ordinances. 3. Utilizing data -driven evaluations through pre- and post -surveys to measure improvements in participants' awareness, confidence, and accurate understanding. Knowing The Law seeks to transform fear and ignorance surrounding the law into confidence and empowerment by creating a safe and engaging learning environment. One example is Crime No Crime, a card trivia game designed to test knowledge of common laws that impact everyday life. Crime No Crime was created by a family of lawyers; including former prosecutors, a judge, a public defender, criminal defense attorneys, and corporate lawyers, who have firsthand experience witnessing the consequences of individuals not knowing or misusing the law during critical moments. 6 Pre & Post Survey Questions: Have you ever talked about what to do if you're stopped by the police? YES- NO- Not Sure What would you do first if you were stopped by a police officer? Why? (Write in answer) How confident do you feel about knowing what your rights are during a police stop? Very confident I Somewhat confident I Not confident I I don't know what rights I have What do you think is the most important thing to do if a police officer stops you? (Write in answer) How do you feel when you think about interacting with police officers? Safe and comfortable I Nervous but okay I Scared or unsure I I've never really thought about it How much control do you think you have over what happens during a police stop? A lot I Some I Very little I None Should police officers reflect the community they are sworn to serve and protect? Why? Yes No 1 Why? (Write In Answer) To be support and assist with closing the knowledge gap is having the proper EDUCATION The Knowing The Law Project works with active officers, retired and reserve officers, lawyers (law students) and law makers to ensure the information that is being presented is the most uptodate and accurate. Partnerships and collaborations with organizations like Beyond The Bars LLC, Miami Community Police Benevolence Association, Wilkie D. Ferguson, and University of Miami Innocence Clinic provide regular validity to the information to ensure what our facilitators and docents are delivering is in accordance with local, state and federal laws. SMARTER CHOICES foster the sustainable growth of both the project and the participants' long-term actions and behaviors. As Dr. Maya Angelou wisely advised, "Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better." Through the collection of both qualitative and quantitative data, the project is positioned to pursue additional funding, thereby expanding its reach and deepening its impact. For participants, these smarter choices may serve as the ounce of prevention that averts early hardships —such as avoiding a juvenile criminal record that could jeopardize professional 7 certifications or future job security. For the project, each documented smarter choice becomes a best -practice model, grounded in evidence -based frameworks, which can be shared with other museums and community organizations for adaptation and implementation in their own contexts. By turning awareness into informed action, the project not only empowers individuals to navigate their civic and legal landscapes with confidence, but also ensures the program itself remains a sustainable and replicable tool for community betterment. In essence, Knowing The Law transforms awareness into education, and education into Smarter Choices —choices that sustain both lives and legacies.

Since 2023, the museum has not only continued its mission of preserving and sharing the important history of Miami's Black police officers but has also taken bold, innovative steps to connect with the community in a fresh and impactful way. Knowing the Law stands out as an exemplary program; one that educates residents about their rights, civic responsibilities, and the Iaw's role in daily life. What makes this effort especially notable is how the museum has embraced creative marketing strategies to reach audiences far beyond its walls. Since VMC Agency began collaborating with the museum in 2023, we have seen firsthand their dedication to engaging the public through multi -channel storytelling, dynamic visuals, and culturally resonant messaging. The museum has leveraged social media, video storytelling, and community partnerships to transform Knowing the Law from a traditional program into an accessible, shareable, and conversation -sparking experience. Through this innovative approach, Knowing the Law has reached new audiences, empowering them with knowledge that fosters both community trust and informed civic participation. It has strengthened the museum's role as not just a keeper of history, but an active agent for education and positive change in Miami. The Black Police Precinct & Courthouse Museum is a vital cultural institution, and Knowing the Law exemplifies the kind of forward -thinking, community -focused programming that deserves continued recognition and support. I am proud to endorse their work and confident in their continued impact for years to come. Sincerely, VaneSca.
