Editor's Notes
The Center for Community Safety (CCS) at Winston-Salem State University was established in 2001 as a public service, training and research center with a mission to engage communities in the strategic utilization of research to shape action and enhance response to community safety issues. The CCS developed its 'Training & Technical Assistance Program' based on more than 10 years of practical field experience and expertise in working on data-based violence-reduction strategies and partnerships.
Explain how you can think about this in the form of a grid. Take the the different types of partners – Law Enforcement, Other Agencies and Non-traditional Partners – and the different ways you can use partners – Strategic, Sustaining Partners, and Supporting Partners – and form a grid. During the course of the PSN initiative, you will benefit from broad and deep partnerships. To ensure that you are developing those, might want to think through what kinds of partners make sense for your communities in each of these grid blocks. Instructor: Can walk through each one.
