Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN) is designed to create safer neighborhoods through a sustained reduction in crime associated with gang and gun violence. The program's effectiveness is based on the cooperation of local, state, and federal agencies engaged in a unified approach led by the U.S. Attorney (USA) in each district. The USA is responsible for establishing a collaborative PSN task force of federal, state, and local law enforcement and other community members to implement gang and gun crime enforcement, intervention and prevention initiatives within the district.
The International Association of Chiefs of Police will continue to support law enforcement in reducing violent crime and illegal gang activity through local prevention, intervention, prosecution and accountability measures. Through training and assistance, IACP will implement strategies to improve partnerships between law enforcement, prosecutors, and local communities. NCA/NCF
