2 Community Policing: Principles Community policing can be defined as an approach toward crime that addresses the underlying causes of crime and endeavors to apply long-term problem solving to the issue through improved police-community partnerships and communications. Community policing is centered around different ideas such as police officers in community policing are to address and manage problems within the communities that they work in. This type of duty is on top of the other responsibilities that is part of their jobs. Community policing is more focused on disorderly conduct crimes, or people who have engaged in a serious criminal activity. Community police officers are going to act as a problem solver whenever the problem arises. Community policing: Valuable Approach All the issues that communities have been facing during today’s society such as the increase in crime and the issues of drugs and homelessness that continue to be on the rise as well. Community policing helps build a relationship with the community members that will help them address the issues that is going on within their community. By building a relationship with community police officers and the community they start to share the same goal which is to better the community. Based on this shared goal between the two it starts a build a partnership as well where the police officers are working to keep the relationship with community members. The community members are sharing information that the police could possibly need to face any problems within the community and stop the problem or crime. Community Policing: Homelessness in LA
3 Community policing can be used for the homeless by setting up a website or a social media page that can post reports of people within the city that are currently homeless, and the website would help keep track of how many homeless people are in different areas and how high and low the numbers of the homelessness communities there are. Another type of community policing for the homelessness in LA would be having the police departments go out to the homeless communities and hand out necessities that they might need, asking what they want to see the police departments do more around the areas to help and keep them safe. It’s better for the police departments to have a relationship with the homeless community so they know that they are protected and cared for. Professional practice of policing: tactics The tactics that police officers were taught to deal with the homeless communities was by issuing a citation, arresting them, and closing their living communities. But using that tactic had effect for a small time because the homeless population increased dramatically because it had little to no effect. Professional practice of policing: Strategy The tactic strategy that was being used by the police department in LA could be seen as the service style of policing because they addressed the issues better than the legalistic style would have. The service style of policing helped reduced the homeless population in LA since it was focused on providing the needs of services to the community.
