File a Complaint
CPRA is required to investigate public complaints involving uses of force, in-custody deaths, profiling based on any of the protected characteristics identified by federal, state, or local law, untruthfulness, and First Amendment assemblies. CPRA may also investigate alleged misconduct as directed by the Commission.
As required by the City Charter, CPRA sends each complaint it receives to OPD's Internal Affairs Bureau (IAB). In some cases, IAB may investigate an allegation of misconduct, and CPRA may not. If you have any questions regarding the complaint process or the status of your complaint, please contact us via email at cpra@oaklandca.gov. Please scroll to the bottom of this page for additional contact information.
