In 2008 the RCPI National Network launched its Creating Successful Partnerships Among Youth and Police project to enhance communication and trust between youth and police and foster collaborative partnerships for addressing youth related problems that give rise to public safety issues.

The project:

• Outlines a process for bringing youth and police together in either a school or community setting,

• Provides the tools and guidance for using those tools in facilitating various activities designed to enhance communication and trust and

• Reviews the S.A.R.A. problem solving process to foster collaborative partnerships for addressing youth related problems that give rise to public safety issues.
