A decade after the President's Task Force on 21st Century Policing published its final report, most agencies can recite the six pillars. Far fewer can show evidence against the first one. Pillar One - building trust and legitimacy - does not ask departments to declare that the community trusts them. It asks them to track the level of trust the same way they track crime: continuously, with data, over time. That is the part that quietly went unimplemented in most of the country.
This infographic puts all six pillars on one page and marks where verified community feedback fits: squarely inside Pillar One, with direct support for training (Pillar Five) and officer wellness through recognition (Pillar Six). It works as an orientation slide for new command staff, a framework page in a strategic plan or grant application, and a one-glance answer when council asks how your trust work maps to a national standard.
