Description

The economic downturn of the past several years has been devastating to local economies and, by extension, their local law enforcement agencies. The impact of this downturn will result in a change of how law enforcement services are delivered. Faced with a dramatic budget contraction, law enforcement leaders need to start identifying different ways to deliver police services and, perhaps more importantly, articulate what the new public safety models will look like to their communities. Contents of this report: A New Method of Data Collection Is Pertinent to Successful Resource Allocation; Law Enforcement Trends Prior to the Economic Downturn; The Great Recession Has Changed the Face of American Policing; Effects on Staffing, Delivery of Services, and Organizational Management; The Importance of Community Policing in Tough Financial Times; Conclusion; References. Figures and tables. This is a print on demand report.
