Based on the 1997 and 1999 Law Enforcement Management and
Administration Statistics surveys, this report focuses on changes
in the prevalence of community-oriented policing policies,
programs, and activities. |

Abstract:
|
The community policing approach to law enforcement seeks to
address the causes of crime and reduce the fear of crime and
social disorder through problem-solving strategies and
police-community partnerships. A fundamental shift from
traditional reactive policing, community policing strives to
prevent crime before it occurs. Subject areas covered include
personnel, training, community-based activities, and computers
and information systems. |
