IPSPS GOALS

Program Goals:

Applied Research - Technical
Assistance

Our goal is to establish an applied research approach to organization and community problems. This will enhance solicitation of projects, programs, and problem- solving endeavors of public safety agencies as they relate to agency issues and needs.

Problem-Solving applications Model

To apply the problem-solving model to agency, community and neighborhood needs, including issues of crime, violence, substance abuse, and incivilities with the goal of improving the quality of life for citizens. Internal needs of public safety agencies fall under this general category and include a broad variety of organizational needs.

Consortium Focus Model

To develop a consortium consisting of other college and university faculty whose expertise and interests lie within the mission of the Institute. In recent years, the Federal Government has mandated a more inclusive approach to funding, one that encourages collaboration, cooperation, and partnerships across agencies and disciplines. The consortium model fits this mandate and strengthens our position for future funding. This posture allows the Institute to offer a broader array of services to agencies and their respective communities.
