ACPI CERTIFICATION PROGRAM

Crime Prevention Through Community Engagement

A practical roadmap for building trust and respect for police through prevention-focused community policing initiatives.

Community Engagement Strategies Can Strengthen Trust and Respect Between the Community and Police

Crime Prevention Through Community Engagement (CPTCE) is a merger of contemporary crime prevention  and community engagement strategies designed to encourage and facilitate community outreach programs and help reinforce an atmosphere of mutual trust and respect between law enforcement and the local community.

Police/community engagement is the development of positive, proactive relationships with community members in a non-stressful, non-enforcement, non-confrontational context for the purpose of strengthening community support for law enforcement and enhancing law enforcement effectiveness.
As developed by ACPI, the definition of Crime Prevention Through Community Engagement (CPTCE) is “the strategic inclusion, involvement and engagement of grass roots community members in the facilitation and support of crime prevention and related community policing efforts.”  This unique crime prevention training program is intended for crime prevention and community resource specialists responsible for developing community outreach and engagement programs.
