INTRODUCTION TO CRIME PREVENTION

The Ohio Crime Prevention Association will be hosting a series of their three-day Introduction to Crime Prevention Course© for law enforcement professionals interested in beginning crime prevention initiatives or those interested in refreshing their knowledge.  Effective Crime Prevention has been seen as a key strategy in reducing crime and violence in our communities. This comprehensive course is designed to address local community issues ranging from physical security to violence prevention.  The course is tailored to the needs of today’s crime prevention and community policing practitioners, and places great emphasis on programmatic initiatives giving the practitioners the knowledge, tools and resources to do their jobs successfully.  Crime Prevention is the anticipation, recognition and the appraisal of a crime risk and the initiation of some action to remove or reduce it.  Crime Prevention means working in partnership, rather than in isolation, and working with concerned citizens to address ways to prevent crime and drug abuse.  It means communities and individual citizens learning how to protect themselves and to work together to keep their neighborhoods crime and drug free.  It means law enforcement working with communities, businesses, and service organizations to develop action plans based on information about crime and other problems.

• History Theory of Practice of Crime Prevention:  Historical Overview, Theory and Practice
