<br />:u~rrY DE~O <br />~ & ~ <br />Wf ~ <br />CRIME PREVENTION INSfITUTE, LtC <br /> <br />CPTED and the Community Development & Crime Prevention Institute <br /> <br />Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) theories contend that law enforcement officers, architects, <br />city planners, landscape and interior designers and resident volunteers can create a climate of safety in a <br />community, right from the start. CPTED's goal is to prevent crime through designing a physical environment that <br />positively influences human behavior - people who use the area regularly perceive it as safe, and would-be criminals <br />see the area as a highly risky place to commit crime. <br /> <br />CPTED is based on four principles; natural access control, natural surveillance, territorial reinforcement, and target <br />hardening. National Crime Prevention Council's (NCPC) courses help participants put the theories behind CPTED into <br />action for their communities. As a result of this training, participants will learn: <br /> <br />. The theory behind CPTED, including an overview of the history of crime and physical environment <br /> <br />. Basics of CPTED principles and how they apply to problem solving, community planning, and safety and <br />security assessments <br /> <br />. Exercises about successful applications of CPTED to specific crimes and "hot spot" locations <br /> <br />. Specific practical techniques, including street and security lighting, landscaping, barriers, traffic calming, <br />target hardening, and more <br /> <br />. The role of maintenance, ordinances, and other local laws in strategies to prevent crime and improve quality <br />of life in neighborhoods <br /> <br />. How to conduct a community safety assessment utilizing tools based on CPTED principles <br /> <br />These courses are designed for local law enforcement professionals, local government and private residential and <br />commercial planners, government officials, business leaders, community activists and others who are looking for <br />innovative ways to prevent crime in their communities. <br /> <br /> <br />Please contact me for additional information: <br /> <br />RQbE'!r1:Qt1:E'!r~t~1:tE'!.r <br /> <br />r\LCltionC!LCQm.munityQ~\t'~19jJm~nt...&.Crim.ePreY~ntioDI nstituJe <br />P.O.
