Foundation for Crime Prevention Programs

Today, many police and sheriff departments across America have implemented extensive crime prevention programs within their organizations, and have generally seen a lot of public interest in these areas. Yet, many including members of these same departments, are sometimes not aware of who has been responsible for a great deal of this emphasis on educating the public in the area of crime prevention. We believe that McGruff has provided the foundation for crime prevention programs for many communities today.

Our department believes that McGruff is without question the most recognized spokesperson for crime prevention in America, and we hope that McGruff will help us promote our crime prevention programs. We also hope that we can carry on in the tradition that McGruff began by providing quality crime prevention programs to our community.

Teaching Crime Prevention in the Community

We expect that McGruff will assist our department in teaching crime prevention topics at our neighborhood watch meetings; during special events like Bel Aire Days; during programs at our schools; during safety events like Bicycle Rodeo, and at other crime prevention programs. McGruff also may be available by request; for crime prevention programs; at block parties, or for crime prevention programs presented to smaller groups.
