Strategies for Policing Initiative

/reports/2019/05/strategies-for-policing-initiative

SPI supports law enforcement agencies in building evidence‑based, data‑driven law enforcement tactics and strategies that are effective, efficient, and economical. SPI represents a strategic approach that helps police agencies figure out what works in crime-prevention and crime‑reduction initiatives. SPI sites apply for grant awards through a competitive review process. Once a site receives an SPI award, the CNA team provides assistance to the SPI site as it designs and implements crime control and crime prevention strategies, and as it collects and analyzes data to devise evidence‑based solutions to target serious crime problems, such as street robberies, substance abuse, repeat violent offenders, retaliatory violence, or gun violence. CNA documents lessons learned and research-tested practices in the SPI sites to share proven policing innovations nationwide.

Despite considerable effort and expense (including thousands of U.S. lives lost), raising military and police forces in places such as Afghanistan, Iraq, and Mali has yielded decidedly lackluster results. As a result, there is growing recognition that the application of traditional security sector reform efforts to combat asymmetric threats such as terrorist groups in fragile or failed states is proving to be slow, cumbersome, and in some instances counterproductive. Moreover, in an era of shrinking defense budgets, a purely top-down, state-centric approach has become too costly and politically contentious to sustain on a large scale.
