SUCCESSFUL POLICE CRIME PREVENTION EFFORTS AIMED AT SENIOR CITIZENS DEPEND ON COMMUNICATION; NOT ONLY THE CORRECT MEDIUM, BUT THE ABILITY TO TAKE THAT MEDIUM TO ELDER CITIZENS, AND KNOWLEDGE OF THE SUBJECT.

Abstract

ALSO IMPORTANT IS THE ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE IN AN EDUCATIONAL AND ENTERTAINING FASHION, THE 'ACHIEVABILITY' AND REASONABLENESS OF CRITERIA SUGGESTED FOR GREATER SECURITY, AND THE 'TIME EFFECTIVENESS' OF COMMUNICATIONS. OTHER MEDIA BESIDE THE SPOKEN WORD CAN ALSO BE UTILIZED IN THE CRIME PREVENTION EFFORT, SUCH AS SENIOR CITIZEN CRIME WATCH ORGANIZATIONS.
