Which of the following is NOT part of the Standards of Professional Conduct?

Community Outreach is not part of the Standards of Professional Conduct. The Standards focus on how officers should behave ethically and legally in their duty: upholding the law as a fundamental obligation, treating all people with fairness and respect (which includes equality and diversity), and avoiding situations that could create a conflict of interest or undermine integrity (such as accepting gratuities). Community Outreach, while valuable as a policing activity and part of community relations, describes an engagement effort rather than a specific conduct rule. So the other items reflect explicit ethical and legal expectations, while outreach is a program area rather than a standard of conduct.
