The Move to Community Policing

Making Change Happen

About this book

Community policing continues to be of great interest to policy makers, scholars and, of course, local police agencies. Successfully achieving the transformation from a traditional policing model to community policing can be difficult. This book aims to illuminate the path to make that change as easy as possible. Morash and Ford have produced a contributed anthology with original articles from a variety of well-known researchers, police trainers and leaders.

They focus on:

  • Recent research for developing data systems to shape police reform
  • Changing the police culture to implement community policing
  • Creating partnership strategies within police organizations and between police and community groups for successful community policing
  • Anticipating future challenges
