1. Community policing is both a philosophy and an organizational strategy that allows
the police and community residents to work closely together in a new way to solve the
problems of crime, fear of crime, physical and social disorder, and neighborhood decay.

2. Community policing organizational strategy first demands that everyone in the
department, including both civilian and sworn personal, must investigate ways to
translate the philosophy into practice.

3. To implement true community policing, Police departments must also create and
develop a new breed of line officer, the Community Policing Officer (CPO), who acts as

,the direct link between the police and the community.

4. The CPO's broad role demands continuous, sustained contact with the law-abiding
people in the community, so that together they can explore creative new solutions to
local concerns involving crime, fear of crime; disorder and decay, with private citizens
serving as unpaid volunteers.

5. Community policing implies a new contract between the police and the citizens it
serves, one that offers the hope of overcoming widespread apathy, at the same time it
restrains any impulse to vigilantism.

6. Community policing adds a vital pro-active element to the reactive role of police,
resulting in full-spectrum police services.

7. Community policing stresses exploring new ways to enhance and protect the lives of
those who are most vulnerable- juveniles, elderly, minorities, the poor, the disabled, the
homeless.

8. Community policing promotes the judicious use of technology, but also rests on the
belief that nothing surpasses what dedicated human beings, talking and working
together, can achieve.

9. Community policing must be a fully integrated approach that involves everyone in the
department, with the CPO's as specialists in bridging the gaps between the police and
the people.

community. It recognizes that police cannot impose order on the community from the
outside, but that people must be encouraged to think of the police as a resource they
can use in helping solve contemporary community concerns
