Maryland Crime Control and Prevention Strategy, 1998 Edition

The vision of making communities safe rests upon four pillars: target high-risk offenders, reclaim at-risk neighborhoods, protect and support victims, and prevent youth violence, drug use, and gangs. These four keys to safe communities involve 14 action steps: control dangerous adult offenders; control dangerous juvenile offenders; keep guns out of the hands of criminals; break the link between drugs and crime; target crime "hotspots" with a comprehensive strategy; promote community policing; engage citizens in crime control; revitalize aging neighborhoods; reduce and prevent family violence; enhance victims' rights and services; demand individual responsibility; strengthen families; enhance school safety; promote supportive communities. Volume 1 is the executive summary. Accession Number: 015673
