Author: Flint, John Title: Evaluation Study of Reidvale Housing Association Community Policing Initiative Summary: It is important that the community policing initiative continues to be conceived as one part of a wider range of interventions to both prevent and manage anti-social behaviour, with clear roles here for the housing association, police, schools and local youth facilities and organizations. There is overwhelming support from residents, police and housing officers for extending the additional policing initiative. In part this recognises its successes and also the costs associated with ending the initiative. Continuing the initiative is now rated a top priority by a majority of local residents in the survey, although over 80 percent of them believe responsibility for tackling anti-social behaviour lies with the police. A strong argument may also be put forward for the cost-benefits of the initiative arising from falling levels of anti-social behaviour. It is important to note that these benefits will accrue to the police, other agencies and other residents as well as to Reidvale Housing Association and its tenants.
