(R49.2) Drug Crime Prevention and Mitigation 2.1 PREVALENCE OF DRUG USE AND HARM AMONG YOUNG PEOPLE In its World Drug Report Although these statistics illustrate that drug use involves the young disproportionately, the figures do not necessarily indicate a high level of drug use in the general population of young people. Apart from cannabis, illicit drug use by young people remains low in terms of historical trends. Among American senior high school students (12th grade), the proportion using any illicit drug other than cannabis, during the previous year rose to 20.7 per cent in 1997, from a low of 14.9 per cent in 1992. However, this is well below the peak of approximately 34 per cent in 1981. In contrast, prevalence of cannabis use by young people increased dramatically during the 1990s. In 1992, 28.8 per cent of American 12th grade students had used cannabis in the past year. By 1997, this proportion had risen to 43.3 per cent. In younger students the increase in annual cannabis use prevalence was more dramatic, with 7.2 per cent of 8th grade students using in the past year in 1993, increasing to 17.7 per cent in 1997 (National Institute on Drug Abuse, 1998). In Europe, surveys of school children indicate a similar pattern of increasing cannabis use during the 1990s. In 1993, 25 per cent of British 15-16 year olds students had tried cannabis, increasing to 38 per cent in 1997 (Balding, 1998). In the Netherlands, 14 per cent of 14-15 year old students had tried cannabis in 1992 and this had increased to 24.5 per cent in 1996 (Kuipers and de Zwart, 1999). During this period, use of other illicit drugs remained low in both these European countries, with some exceptions. In the Netherlands and Britain, use of Ecstasy (

Crime Prevention National Neighborhood Watch Program Join NSA in working toward doubling the number of Neighborhood Watch groups in the nation by January 2004. Record your efforts online at USAonwatch.org in the Meet the Challenge area. Thank you for your commitment to Neighborhood Watch and crime prevention! Neighborhood Watch is undoubtedly one of the oldest and most well known crime prevention concepts in history. While the modern day concept of Neighborhood Watch came into prominence in the late 1960s in response to an increasing burglary rate, its roots in America can actually be traced all the way back to the days of Colonial settlements when night watchmen patrolled the streets. The National Sheriffs' Association (NSA) took this crime prevention concept a step further by making it a national initiative the National Neighborhood Watch Program . The program was developed in response to a multitude of requests from Sheriffs and Police Chiefs around the country. Law enforcement leaders were looking for a crime prevention program which would incorporate citizen involvement, and which would address the increasing number of burglaries taking place, especially in rural and suburban residential areas.

In our "Elements of Crime" Triangle, by removing any one of the legs of the triangle, one removes the crime. One can remove the desire to commit a crime by educating. One can remove the ability to commit a crime by incarcerating, and one can remove the opportunity to commit a crime by "Target-Hardening". Effective crime prevention incorporates all of these things.

CHRONOLOGY OF POLICE INVOLVEMENT IN NEW ZEALAND PRIMARY AND SECONDARY EDUCATION Law Related Education Programme Based on the work of Ruth Waldron First organised contact between police and schools. Belief that friendly contact between police officers and children in the classroom would be a stimulating and healthy influence. The scheme was to start in the main four centres (Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch and Dunedin). Four sergeants and eight constables gave lectures in schools in the four main centres. Talks were illustrated by film slides and discussed the duties of a police officer. Role of police officer was as an instructor, therefore no partnership existed between teacher and officer. ‘Juvenile Crime Prevention’ Section established. School Talks discontinued in Wellington and Dunedin because of staff shortage, but remained in Auckland and Christchurch. ‘Juvenile Crime Prevention" Section was renamed ‘Youth Aid’ Section. Significant change occurred with decision to set up permanent School Talks programme therefore distinct from earlier attempts.

78. BUPD Online: Crime Prevention department; it is shared by YOU. In fact your involvement is the mostimportant factor in crime prevention. You are the eyes and ears http://www.bu.edu/police/prevention/about.html

What is Crime Prevention Crime prevention is the anticipation, recognition, and the appraisal of a crime risk and the initiation of some action to remove or reduce it. What does this mean for you? What is SUSPICIOUS? Anything that seems slightly "out of place" for the area or time of day in which it occurs. The most obvious things to watch out for and report are: Strangers entering your neighbor's room when it is unoccupied. Anyone trying doors to see if they are locked. Persons entering or leaving an academic office area after hours. Screams heard, anywhere and anytime. They may mean an assault, a rape, or a robbery is in progress. The sound of breaking glass or other loud, explosive noises. An accident, burglary, or vandalism may have occurred. Persons around bicycle racks carrying bolt cutters, pipes or other tools. A person running-especially if carrying something of value-could be leaving the scene of a crime. While most of the situations described above could have innocent explanations, your police department would rather investigate crime-prone situations than be called when it is too late.

79. Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design The CPTED theory advocates that all possibilities for natural crime prevention beexhausted, prior to the involvement of the mechanical and organized strategies http://www.ci.mesa.az.us/police/literature/cpted.asp

Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) Police Home Page Crime Prevention Unit Literature Available Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design, or CPTED (pronounced sep-ted), is a crime prevention philosophy based on the theory that proper design and effective use of the built environment can lead to a reduction in the fear and incidence of crime, as well as an improvement in the quality of life. The best time to apply this philosophy is in the design phase, before a building or neighborhood is built. You can also successfully apply it later, but retrofitting an existing environment can sometimes be costly. The use of CPTED will reduce crime and fear by reducing criminal opportunity and fostering positive social interaction among legitimate users of space. A legitimate user means one who is using a space for its intended purpose. The emphasis is on prevention rather than apprehension and punishment. There are three basic and overlapping principles in the CPTED concept. In order to get a better understanding of the concept, let us consider these: Natural Surveillance: We need to create environments where there is plenty of opportunity for people engaged in their normal behavior to observe the space around them.

The Crime Prevention Unit A. Spencer Wilcox Proprietor Enter here all who wish to be crime free. When there is crime in society, there can be no justice. Plato In order for Crime to occur, three elements must be present. These are Desire Ability Opportunity These elements of crime are usually depicted in a triangle. As with any triangle, if a single leg is missing, a triangle cannot be formed. This holds true in regard to crime as well. If any one of these is missing, no crime will occur. The main objective of Crime Prevention is to reduce the opportunity for crime, thereby reducing the likelihood that crime will occur. In our " Elements of Crime" Triangle, by removing any one of the legs of the triangle, one removes the crime. One can remove the desire to commit a crime by educating. One can remove the ability to commit a crime by incarcerating, and one can remove the opportunity to commit a crime by target-hardening. Effective Crime Prevention incorporates all of these things.
