Community Prosecution

Community prosecution is a collaborative approach to law enforcement where prosecutors work closely with local communities to address specific crime problems and improve public safety. Instead of solely focusing on traditional courtroom duties, community prosecutors engage with residents, law enforcement, and local organizations to understand community concerns and tailor strategies that address those needs. This proactive method emphasizes prevention, community involvement, and building trust, with the goal of promoting a safer environment and reducing crime through collective efforts rather than just punitive measures.
