ABOUT UNITY PARTNERSHIP

Our story

In recent years, a series of highly publicized police-related shootings around the country have created tension between law enforcement and the African-American community, resulting in an increase in violence against police officers. At the height of this socially tenuous time, Regina Brent and Ronald Allen successfully brought forth a proclamation through the DuPage County Board, recognizing African-Americans’ humanity, freedom, and basic civil rights.

Concerned about the growing dissension and recognizing that these issues are not exclusive to the black community, Ms. Brent and Mr. Allen formed Unity Partnership.  The organization includes a number of cultural, ethnic, and religious groups,  giving a collective voice to their concerns and working proactively to prevent future problems. In the spirit of community collaboration, Unity Partnership’s membership also includes law enforcement officials and community leaders. Unity Partnership continues to grow its mission, working with nonprofit organizations and small business owners to facilitate meaningful dialogue between the community and its police departments.
