Book excerpt: This study of citizen attitudes toward foot patrol in Flint, Mich., in 1981 and 1985 shows some drop in favorable attitudes toward foot patrol, but also indicates that a significant majority favored its continuance. The Flint foot patrol program, which began in 1979, initially consisted of 22 officers assigned to 14 experimental areas containing approximately 20 percent of the city's population. Goals were to decrease actual or perceived criminal activity, to increase citizen involvement in crime prevention, and to improve police-citizen cooperation in promoting neighborhood safety. Positive aspects of foot patrol were its popularity with residents, improved neighborhood stability, improved race relations, reduced juvenile delinquency, and enhanced service to vulnerable populations. Negative aspects were its increased cost, longer response times, and the criticism of uninvolved officers. The 1981 interviews with a random sample of 280 residents in the experimental patrol areas showed overwhelming approval for foot patrol, reflected in citizens' voting twice for tax support of community policing. The 1985 interviews with 98 of the original 280 residents showed some reduction in enthusiasm for foot patrol but continued overall support for it. It is concluded that community policing has a hopeful future in urban areas, provided beat sizes are appropriate for population density and characteristics. Appendixes contain tabulated responses to each Appendixes contain tabulated responses to each interview question for the 2 years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do citizen and police initiatives have any impact on the incidence and fear of crime? This volume brings together studies, undertaken by well-respected criminal justice scholars, of some community crime prevention programmes that were introduced in several major US cities. The volume is unique in its breadth of focus: its contributors address a broad and varied audience, including practitioners, policy-makers and scholars interested in community crime prevention and evaluation research. They present detailed descriptions of the intervention, the evaluation of the intervention and the issues surrounding both. Other topics discussed include the process of encouraging and organizing citizen involvement, the setting of programme goals and useful forms of assessment. Community Crime Prevention promises to stimulate much further discussion, research and policy analysis.

Book excerpt: Public involvement in crime prevention activities has emerged as a critical issue in recent years as it has become clear that citizens can play a key role in reducing crime. Numerous efforts have been aimed at encouraging citizens to take actions to reduce their own risk of victimization, and that of others as well. One prominent effort has been a three-year-old "Take a Bite Out of Crime" national media campaign, sponsored by the Crime Prevention Coalition in cooperation with the Advertising Council. This report summarizes research evaluating the impact of that campaign on public awareness, attitudes, and actions concerning crime prevention, and offers recommendations for future public information strategies aimed at encouraging increased citizen participation in crime prevention. The evaluation findings indicate that mass media campaigns can be effective in changing people's crime prevention attitudes and behaviors, and that mass media can be effective tools in promoting cooperative prevention efforts among citizens.
