This directory describes police and sheriff department crime prevention programs and resources in Virginia, describes university police agencies and resources in the State, outlines national and State organizations with crime prevention activities, and presents a guide to commonly used crime prevention films.
Abstract
The directory is intended to offer an opportunity for crime prevention programs to match their project needs with resources available on the national, State, and local levels and to provide a means of resource sharing among local and State agencies. For each of the police and sheriff's departments and for the university police agencies, the organization's name, address, person in charge, and phone number are listed. This is followed by a list of the organization's available resources, including staff, films, slides, displays, and equipment. Services offered by the organization are listed by programs, staff, and resource material. A description of the crime prevention units of national and State organizations includes the name and address of the program, the contact and telephone number, and the areas of the organization's activities. The film guide is organized by program areas, such as residential burglary and assaults on women. A glossary of terms and the data sheet for the directory are provided.
