For over three decades the Crime Commission has been improving the safety and security of the citizens of Tulsa and the surrounding area. The Crime Commission's education, anti-violence and public visibility efforts have clearly supported the commission's three directives of public education, awareness and involvement. The Crime Commission is a non-profit, 501c3, private organization who relies solely on private donations, grant opportunities and city contracts to conduct its business. The Crime Commission is recognized locally and statewide by officials and citizens as an effective tool for addressing community crime problems. The Crime Commission's unique organization and structure serve as a model for other communities. Our core program Alert Neighbor/Citizen Alert Patrol offers strategies that prevent crime, reduce the fear of crime and improve the quality of life in neighborhoods. We are skillful in collecting data that is specific to a neighborhood, communicating that data in a manner that is effective and generates support from participating neighborhoods and then building collaborative relationships that solve a community's most pressing need. Given the current environment of mistrust in city government and the loss of police personnel, we have taken extra time to break down barriers of apathy and mistrust so that meaningful partnerships can be forged. Trust is the value that underlies and links the components of community partnership and problem solving. The Crime Commission is a trusted and valued member of the communities we serve.
