The COPS Office was created as a result of the Violent Crime Control and Law
Enforcement Act of 1994. As a component of the Justice Department,
the mission of the COPS Office is to advance community policing as
an effective strategy in communities’ efforts to improve public
safety. Learn more.
COPS
Office 2006 Webcast Series
In 2006, COPS produced three webcasts to provide information about
issues facing law enforcement and the communities they serve: gangs
(2-part); methamphetamine; and recruitment, hiring, and retention. The
webcasts are available free of charge for anyone interested in
learning about preventing the growth of gangs, the state of the meth
epidemic, and strategies for hiring top cops. The webcasts are useful
tools in opening or furthering community safety dialogues in your
community. View the webcasts and read the transcripts in the DOJConnect.com
Archive.
