“As scientists and pracademics, you need different tools around different situations. There’s other ways to deal w/ crime than arrest. This is a mentality that must change. When it comes to crime prevention, the community can play a lead role,” @alex_gis_ @RutgersSCJ. #NIJ2023

Great discussion on spatial analysis (crime mapping, hot spots, etc) & the importance of recognizing that #community live in these areas. It’s crucial to consider that #police may not always be the best response. #CommunityEngagement & a multidisciplinary approach is key. – at Arlington, VA

It’s communities who are at the core of public safety. As we further develop this amazing tech for crime analysis, how can we keep them rooted in community? #NIJ2023
