Extractions: Français Contact Us Help Search ... Printable Version The NCPS - sponsored in partnership between the Department of Justice and the Portfolio of the Solicitor General Canada - focuses on educating and supporting communities in their efforts to develop and implement effective ways to reduce local crime and victimization. The NCPS' primary focus is on crime prevention through social development (CPSD), an approach that recognizes the complex social, economic and cultural processes that contribute to crime and victimization by working with communities to identify and address the root causes of crime. For more information on this initiative, visit web site: http://www.prevention.gc.ca/index.html While the Department of Justice has the lead in implementing the NCPS, the Portfolio of the Solicitor General of Canada has a national role. Portfolio of the Solicitor General of Canada: national leadership in crime prevention initiatives through the Crime Prevention and the Public Safety Initiative (CPPSI), with a range of activities to support policing and correctional agencies in addressing the root causes of crime (Policing and Crime Prevention; First Nations Policing and Crime Prevention; and Aboriginal Community Corrections and Crime Prevention). Royal Canadian Mounted Police: partner to the Department of the Solicitor General in the delivery of the CPPSI. The RCMP focuses on the learning and building upon the police role in social development; on communities with high needs; and on youth.

At the time, research indicated that feelings of apathy, fear, and the inevitability of crime prevented the public from addressing rising crime rates. McGruff and his now familiar slogan, "Take a bite out of crime," helped to change that. The popular public service advertisements (PSAs) were designed to raise awareness among Americans that every citizen has the ability to prevent or at least to reduce crime. Additionally, the spots were developed to empower citizens with an individual sense of responsibility for preventing crime. In just the first months of the campaign, more than 300,000 copies of the booklet, "Got a minute? You could stop a crime," were requested, and by 1981, more than one million copies were distributed as a direct result of the advertising, which encouraged the public to perform simple steps such as locking doors and joining with neighbors to create neighborhood watch groups.

Community Involvement in Crime Prevention asset or liability? Sustainable reductions in neighbourhood crime and insecurity are best maintained if local people have been involved in defining the problems and "owning" the solutions. Traditionally crime control was seen as a job for the police. However, there has been increasing recognition in government and even amongst the police themselves, that citizens have a key role to play. This role can be performed in three different ways, as outlined in the diagram below: These three approaches are not mutually exclusive and, over time, one type of action may transform into another. For example an issue campaign instigated by local residents frustrated by the proliferation of drug misuse in their neighbourhood may lead to them setting up their own drugs information and support network, which could then lead to collaboration with the local authority/health authoritiy drugs prevention strategies. Community involvement in crime prevention has large potential assets, but there may also be liabilities from a professional and rational viewpoint.

Site Map Second Patrol Division Crime Prevention/Decentralization Realized through command and constituency support, the city has taken a decentralized approach in order to reduce the elements of crime and assemble the support of unstable communities. Likewise, the Second Patrol Division has taken on a similar concept. Problems of disruption in communities are capable of more responsible resolution than routine reactive patrol. The proper resolution, we suggest, lies in weighing the autonomy of special teams as a factor in the balance when interpreting the means by which officers regulates matters affecting the quality of neighborhoods.
