Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice

Crime prevention involves strategies and actions aimed at reducing the likelihood of crimes occurring, such as community programs, increased law enforcement presence, and environmental design. Criminal justice refers to the system responsible for enforcing laws, including police, courts, and correctional facilities, ensuring offenders are held accountable and rights are protected. Together, they work to maintain social order, protect citizens, and promote fairness by preventing crime and managing those who commit offenses through fair and effective processes.
