In 1984 a document issued jointly by the Home Office, Department of Education and Science, Department of Environment, Department of Health and Social Security, and the Welsh Office suggested crime prevention policy. It calls for joint police-community crime prevention efforts, crime prevention measures based on an analysis of local crime patterns, and changes in the physical environment that reduce the opportunities for crime. The national government has worked with local police forces to facilitate crime prevention efforts. The Department of the Environment, for example, has financed and developed innovative initiatives to improve the quality of life in inner cities. One successful program under this initiative is a center for youth in Whittingham, Northumria, which guides youth from deprived backgrounds in the constructive use of their time. Another youth crime prevention project in Northumbria is the Youth Training Scheme, which enlists employers to hire school dropouts for up to 2 years to help them develop the job skills required for full-time work. In 1968 a system of crime prevention panels was established in the United Kingdom. Composed of police and community representatives, these panels plan cooperative police-community crime prevention efforts. A national crime prevention organization, known as 'Crime Concern,' established by the Home Office, has undertaken some practical crime-prevention initiatives which include identifying exemplary local crime prevention programs, raising and distributing funds for local initiatives, establishing a register of crime prevention initiatives, monitoring research, and establishing an information and advice service.
