Disconnected from his family and his tribe, the young adult did what had to survive, and in turn fell into dangerous behaviors such as drug and alcohol abuse. It is the case that his dilemma had to do with a nurturing of poor behavior by means of his societal standing and resulting lack of opportunity for growth.

This concept is the police and community working together as one and the police being in the community, for the community, as the community rather than focusing solely on law enforcement.

Several events in recent history have cast the issue of police actions and the relationship between police and the citizens they serve into the fore front of a heated debate. The trust between officers and the U.S. public would appear to be unsustainably low. Yet a historical look reveals that the conversation is not new, rather the result of an up and down relationship that has existed since colonial watchmen first walked the darkened streets of the thirteen colonies.

The media is often a reliable means to obtain information about crime. Information can usually be surmised as to whether the crime is violent in nature or property related and many times offers identifiable markings of the victim as well as the perpetrator of the crime.

The topic for this research proposal project is on community policing, and the factors that are involved in determining if relationships between law enforcement and citizens in these neighborhoods are strained. In order to be successful, community policing must be built on trust, as both civilians and law enforcement must work hand in hand to protect their communities.
