Abstract
NEIGHBORHOOD CRIME PREVENTION PROGRAMS (INCLUDING THE NEIGHBORHOOD WITCH PROGRAM) ARE DISCUSSED. CITIZENS ARE URGED TO REPORT UNUSUAL INCIDENTS TO LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES. PROPERTY IDENTIFICATION, PROPER LOCKS, LIGHTING, AND ALARMS ARE SUGGESTED AS PREVENTIVE MEASURES. THIS FILM SEEMS WELL-SUITED FOR PUBLIC VIEWING AS PART OF AN ANTI-BURGLARY PROGRAM.
