(May 2010)
PREAMBLE
We, the members of the North Carolina Crime
Prevention Association, recognize that by formal
definition, crime prevention is the
“anticipation, recognition, and appraisal of a
crime risk and the initiation of some action to
remove or reduce it.”
In practical application, crime prevention is a
pattern of attitudes and behaviors directed both
at reducing the threat of crime and enhancing
the sense of safety and security. Crime
prevention positively influences the quality of
life of our society, and helps develop
environments where crime cannot flourish through
a concentrated, cooperative effort. Therefore,
we, hereby form the following Constitution and
By-Laws for the promotion and advancement of
Crime Prevention.
