The Alliance says the best way to make communities safer is not through policing or prisons, but by making sure everyone has well-paid work, free education, and free healthcare. They believe that if people's basic needs are met, crime rates will go down on their own. They do not detail specific policing or sentencing policies.
“Ultimately, it is only by ensuring our communities enjoy well-paid jobs and free education and health care that crime rates will reduce and our communities become safer.”
