Crime Suppression Task Force
The project is centered on the creation of a task force and a strategic action plan to address an increase in specific crimes. Given the department's table of organization, the student will
1. Identify departmental units that will be included on the task force and
• Briefly describe its typical operational/administrative role and regular duties in a law enforcement agency
• Explain why the unit was chosen for this task force, what role it will play on the task force
• Explain how it will interact with other selected task force units.
2. Identify 4 units that will NOT be part of the task force and
• Briefly describe its typical operational/administrative role and regular duties in a law enforcement agency
• Explain why it was NOT chosen for this task force.
3. To complete the task force, the student will also identify non-departmental units from the criminal justice system that should be included in some manner on the task force
• Briefly describe its typical operational/administrative role and regular duties in the criminal justice system
• Explain why the unit was chosen for this task force, what role it will play on the task force
• Explain how it will interact with other selected task force units.
Again, the goal of this project is to give the student an opportunity to determine, analyze and assess the role of various police department units and their relationship to other units.
