The task force has nine members--the Governor and two representatives from each of four cities (Santa Ana, Pasadena, Concord, and Stockton). The cities were selected because they have crime prevention programs which involve a police-citizen teamwork. A Technical Advisory Group (TAG) implements workplans for achieving the goals and objectives of the task force. The main objectives of the task force are to identify successful crime resistance programs throughout the State involving community-police partnership, educate citizens in specific crime prevention measures, and offer technical assistance support. Moreover, the task force intended to establish a centralized, state-wide resource center; catalog existing programs; and stimulate a statewide attitude of continuing citizen-volunteer involvement in crime resistance. The task force operates a Crime Resistance Information Center, provides technical assistance to agencies on how to implement crime prevention programs, and conducts a Public Awareness Campaign involving all phases of the media. Four programs of the demonstration cities are described. These programs are Santa Ana's community oriented policing, Concord's Operation Alert, Stockton's neighborhood police program, and Pasadena's crime resistance involvement council (victim assistance team). Three appendixes contain relevant documents of rosters, the Executive Order, and contents of the Assembly Bill.
