My understanding of this program is that it puts the prevention of crime in the community’s hands. The way it does this is with the community have having programs such as neighborhood watch home security survey. Of course the community still has to work with the police for these programs to work. Especially the security survey because this one requires for an officer to be sent out to your home and go over with you ways you can prevent your home to be less of a target to criminals. The third program is the communication program. This program helps the police to connect with the community by showing them who the police are and things they can do within the community to help out. There are a few ways they do this but the one that sticks out to me in particular is the ride along program. I myself have done this. It really is a good way for the people in the community to see what the police do so they know more how they can help. It also allows the police to connect on a different level with the minority groups in the community to let them know they are there for them as well. The last program is community social control
