Describe what took place in Seattle's Community Crime Prevention Program (CCPP)

What will be an ideal response?


In a response to a burglary problem, police sought to alert members of the community of their intent to target this crime problem. First, they sent out mailings about their intentions to neighborhood residents, followed by a door-to-door campaign. Following these initial contacts, organized block watch programs were established. Then residents were involved in Operation Identification to mark their property and receive home security inspections. Surveys that followed this operation indicated a modest reduction in burglary rates.
