Abstract

The Crime Prevention Strategy implemented in South Australia embraces alternative methods of crime prevention and promotes the concept of prevention from a social intervention perspective. Three main areas of activity have emerged as the cornerstones of the implementation process: the establishment of the Coalition Against Crime; the development of programs undertaken by government agencies; and the Community Development Program.
