Community policing
The goal of community policing is for the police to build relationships with the community through interactions with local agencies and members of the public, creating partnerships and strategies for reducing crime and disorder.
Community policing is concerned with solving the crimes that the community is concerned about, and solving concerns by working with and gaining support from the community.
