Community-Oriented Policing

Paper Summary:

In the city of Midville, the community is having an escalating problem with crime. Unfortunately, the officers that work for the mid-size municipal police agency have been receiving more calls than they can handle. However, trained people within the community could easily handle some of the calls they are responding to. Therefore, as "consultants" for the police agency, this paper implements and evaluates a community policing effort for Midville. In addition, it prepares a proposal to Midville's City Manager, Mr. Jones; the presentation includes proposed methods to evaluate its success or failure.

From the Paper:

"Para-military style of policing is gradually being replaced throughout the U.S., with community-oriented policing. Community-oriented policing is forming a partnership between the police and the community in order to address the problems that can lead to serious crime. While the police will still handle the crime fighting and other law enforcement responsibilities, the police and community work together to seek out the problem areas that can encourage criminal behavior."
