Furthermore, the campaign works in partnership with bureaus of OJP to provide crime prevention assistance to grantees and subgrantees. These public service advertisements can be localized and individualized by State agencies and associations, or major media market organizations. Books, monographs, workbooks, booklets, brochures, and program kits share the lessons learned from crime prevention programs and practitioners across the Nation. Training and technical assistance. In fewer than 6 years, more than 3,500 people from more than 40 States have been trained in these formal workshops.
Trainees range from local chief law enforcement executives to public housing residents.
In addition, effective responses to specific community concerns are delivered via technical assistance. NCPC staff respond by mail, by telephone, and in person to thousands of technical assistance requests each year. A network of leaders. Around the Nation, this campaign provides a network of leaders from all sizes and kinds of jurisdictions who value prevention as a priority. The formal embodiment of this network is the Crime Prevention Coalition, which consists of more than 120 member groups and for which NCPC serves as secretariat.
