Title: Salt Lake City's Comprehensive Communities Program: A Case Study Summary: Salt Lake City’s Comprehensive Communities Program (CCP), which began April 1, 1995, with a $2.2 million grant from the Bureau of Justice Assistance, sought to create “a neighborhood-based model for the prevention, intervention, and suppression of crime” (CCP program brochure, 1995). The main mission of the Salt Lake City project was to “restructure our law enforcement and social services systems so they can effectively reduce violent youth crime in today’s environment in a comprehensive way.” At the core of the CCP initiative in practice were five innovative units called Community Action Teams (CAT). A CAT is a neighborhood-based problem-solving team comprised of representatives from relevant government and not-for-profit agencies which has responsibility for addressing crime-related community problems in a specific geographic area. In addition to these efforts to “reinvent” government and social service activity at the neighborhood level, Salt Lake City’s CCP included a variety of programs directed at early intervention, treatment, community mobilization, and alternatives to traditional criminal justice approaches to processing offenders. This case study of Salt Lake City’s CCP program was written as a result of site visits made to various CCP programs and interviews with CCP participants between November, 1995 and January, 1997. It also incorporates data from BOTEC’s CCP Coalition Survey and Community Policing Survey, as well as information contained in federal and local documents and reports. Follow-up phone calls were made during December, 1997 and January, 1998, to key participants in order to write the epilogue. Details: Cambridge, MA: BOTEC Analysis Corporation, 2004. 71p.
