Study Design: Two prosecutors' offices participated in the study. One was a traditional office, focusing on holding offenders accountable and case processing. The other was a more community-oriented office, having implemented community prosecution. More specifically, the first office was more traditional in its approach to prosecution, focusing on holding offenders accountable and case processing with some additional efforts focused on addressing and preventing certain types of crime, such as gang and gun violence, domestic violence, child abuse, and truancy. The second office was more community-oriented, having implemented and embraced a community prosecution approach to crime, which involved proactive problem-solving, partnerships with the community, and use of techniques other than criminal prosecution to address certain types of crime and public safety issues.
