Community Policing

This course enables you to better understand that community policing is a philosophy, a management style, and an organizational strategy all at the same time. Community policing presents challenges for the police, civic officials, and citizens to provide necessary changes to address the issues. It provides step-by-step instructions on how to implement community policing. Police alone cannot solve all of our problems, so the goal becomes forging new coalitions that can help make our communities better and safer places in which to live and work. In addition to the text, information for the lecture sections is gleaned from COPPS - Community Oriented Policing & Problem Solving, a publication of the California Attorney General's Crime and Violence Prevention Center, 1992 and The National Center For Community Policing at Michigan State University Web Page Publications at www.ssc.msu.edu.
