Violent Crime Reduction Operations Guide (VCROG)

While some communities suffer much more than others, violent crime is a daunting challenge for metropolitan Chiefs and Sheriffs. Starting from their first day on the job and for every day they serve. This guide is written by Chiefs and for Chiefs. As a living document, we hope it will be updated and enhanced with best practices in the years ahead. It is the tradition of Major Cities Chiefs to share lessons learned with each other. The Violent Crime Reduction Operations Guide was developed in this spirit because it seeks to convey what works and why when facing the menace of violent crime in urban areas.
