Models of Policing

For this Discussion, consider the difference between community policing and traditional policing, and evaluate the benefits and limitations of both approaches. Consider which would be most effective for addressing the specific issue of street gangs and more generally for meeting the needs of a multicultural population. Post by Day 3 the benefits and limitations of each of the two approaches in response to street gangs. Explain which constitutes the better approach for addressing the problem of street gangs and why. Finally, explain which approach would best serve an increasingly diverse multicultural population and why.
