The project consisted of citizen efforts conducted through the South Seattle Crime Prevention Council and the organization of the Anticrime Team by the South Precinct of the Seattle Police Department. The department's effort emphasized problem-oriented policing. The analysis showed that the combination of several actions, which were not necessarily connected or even planned, produced what appears to be an extremely promising and comprehensive approach to the effective and efficient delivery of police services. The program is currently being implemented throughout the city. Recommended actions for the future include strong program support throughout the city, coordination with other city agencies and community groups, and further research. Maps, chart, and descriptions of similar programs in Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Portland, St. Louis, and Savannah, Ga. For a summary of this report, see NCJ-133524.
