Those strategies being CompStat and the broken windows/order maintenance policing. I feel that both of these approaches will work perfectly together and not only would they decrease the crime rate but get the community to feel safer and also develop a better relationship between the police officers and the citizens. Starting with the CompStat strategy approach

The more offenders I can help the more likely I will
