How To Create A Service Request



Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) is a multi-disciplinary approach to deterring criminal behavior through environmental design. By altering the physical design of a space it may be possible to reduce the incidence and fear of crime, as well as to improve the quality of life. In order to create more sustainable crime prevention, community involvement and a collaborative community effort is required.
CPTED Assessments
Community Policing offers free CPTED business evaluations of buildings, areas, spaces, and architectural drawings, in addition to educational sessions.
