BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – As 2017 comes to a close, it’s now time to focus our efforts on Crime Prevention for the coming year.

Last year, we placed a strong emphasis on trying to bring awareness to the importance of lowering the incidence of Domestic Violence in our community and in working to stop Driving Under the Influence.

While both of those crimes are still in our immediate focus, in the coming year we will employ significant awareness and energy on the following areas of Crime Prevention, Safety and making sure that Brevard County is one of the most awesome places in the country to call home.

2018 Crime Prevention, Safety, And Community Goals

1. Continue to work in Partnership with our Citizens to lower our crime rate. (Down 16% Since 2013)

As we continue to work closely with our citizens we will be rolling out some new programs through our Social Media efforts as well as through the efforts of our Crime Prevention Unit to make sure that we are doing everything possible to bring our citizens vital crime prevention information before they become a victim, not after.

So as we collectively prepare for an exciting new year, I want to personally thank each of our citizens for the incredible support of our agency and for partnering with us to lower our crime rate while keeping Brevard County a great place to live, work and raise our families.
