~OMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENT
(Up to two additional pages may be used for this section)
Form 2
NARRATIVE: After working with community leaders and citizens of all ages utilizing
the information produced in the monthly crime analysis report the unit found that
it must approach the community's needs in crime prevention by new techniques. How
do you reach more citizens with only a few staff memebers and cover the different
areas of prevention.
One of the resources avuliable to the unit were surveys of church congregations
throughout the community they represent every age, and ethnic background.
The need is to be able to help the citizens within areas that have been subjected
to fear of harm because of the area they live in, and the conditions that prevail
from the individuals that make up the problem. One of the strengths of a community
is the churches which will furnish t'he resources to see a realistic success of
crime prevention programs.
The Crime Prevention Unit used the monthly crime analysis reports and residential
and business surveys to assess the needs within the community. The area that was
picked as it is low to middle income and has minority and senior citizens living
in the areas. During the past year this area was found to be a high crime area.
Contains commercial, grammet schools and a high school. The resident survey and
phone calls from the residents during the year proved the need.
The specific type crime (shoplifting) was picked from the crime analysis report and
the unit worked with businesses to establish how large were the numbers and the
amount of funds that was generated by the youths throughout the community to use
to purchase drugs. The numbers were higher then the amount reported. One of the
larger department stores which was locally owned advised the staff that during
1986 and 1987 their two stores lost an average of 350,000 to 400,000 per year.
Smaller stores report from 500.00 to 1,000.00 per month.
The need is to cut the large source of funds used by the youths te purchase drugs.
We find that only ten percent of the crimes are reported or not found by the
businesses until the end of the month or at years end.
The crime prevention staff identified the overall needs and placed them in the
following order:
a. Cut down ~ large source of funds for purchasing drugs by
the youths of the community (shoplifting).
b. There is a need to create a new approach to help more citizens
of all ages that address the various programs that the unit
offers and the utilization of volunteers to assist.
c. There is a need to cut down crime in the city's high crime neighborhoods
by increasing the Neighborhood Watch program throughout the city and
start a controlled target area that can be monitored for results.
d. Offer senior citizen programs to help the seniors in regards to satcry,
fraud, bunco, and drug awareness within their community.
e. Education of our youth in the schools in regards to the effects of
drugs and alcohol.
f. There is a need for sexual assault awareness and safety programs for
women of all ages and ethnic groups.
g. Employers throughout the city need help in regards to prevention
programs ~or their employees in drug and alcohol awareness and the
e~fects that they have in the work place. Robbery and Burglary
Prevention Seminars.
PROBLEM STATEMENT
(Use up to two additional pages if more space is needed)
City of Bakersfield
NAME OF AGENCY/ORGANIZATION: City of Bakersfield
Recipient of CCR Funds within the past two years? _~X Yes No
1987 California Crime Index 7,163.00
PROBLEM STATEMENT
Narrative: During the past six months the Crime Prevention Unit has conducted
a study pertaining to crimes that are committed to gain funds to purchase drugs
and alcohol by the youths of this city. Grammar school to high school age
group. '
What crime could a youth commit that would produce enough funds to purchase
drugs and alcohol on a daily basis and not be in fear of their life while
committing the crime, and if apprehended they would in most cases receive
a minor penalty? The crime is (shoplifting).
Bakersfield has between 290 and 350 average reported shoplifting calls per
month throughout the city. Now if you consider the national statistics that
states, on an average of only 10 percent of shoplifters are detected and
ninety five percent of the crimes go undetected. This means that Bakersfield
has an average of over 2900 to 3500 shoplifting crimes per month. Items taken
will run from a couple of dollars to over two hundred or more. If you take an
average of ten dollars per theft, the amount per month would be 29,000 to 35,000
thousand. A large amount of this will be used to purchase drugs and alcohol by
the youth of our city.
After surveys of stores were taken to show their losses pertaining to shoplifting,
it was of unreal amounts. The management of two of our locally owned department
stores declared that during 1986 and 1987 they averaged a loss of $350,000.00
per year. Building material sto~es report the losses of over $50,000.00 per
year and the average stores reported that it was nothing to register $300
to $1,O00 per month losses. With over 7,000 retail businesses. The monthly
loss amount at $300 x 7000 = $ 2,1OO,OOO.
If only 60% of this was for obtaining lunds for drug purchases,this would
amount to $1,260~000. Items are then sold on the street for an average 20%
of the value of the items taken, which leaves $252,000. for purchasing drugs
and alcohol.
A survey was taken in the Los Angeles jail systems as to where the inmates had
obtained funds for their drug habits, sixty to seventy percent that it was
obtained from shoplifting on a daily basis. Burglary and robbery losses per
month do not even come close.
As most units throughout the state, the Bakersfield Crime Prevention Unit must
come up with new approaches to presenting crime prevention p~ograms to more
citizens of all ethnic gotups and in areas that are of great need. As it
shdws, Bakersfield is in the top ten in regards to it's crime index of 7,163.
Our schools now register that the Hispanic youth population is over forty-three
percent, eleven percent Black and forty six percent Caucasian. The city is
at 157,O00 and the metro population is 300,000.
(cont'd) PROBLEM STATEMENT
The unit has been very successful in it's past efforts in regards to presenting
p~ograms. The citizens and the city council back oor efforts, but new techniques
must be employed to reach more citizens.
Bakersfield has a complete community with senior citizens plus a large population
of seniors throughout the city that make up all types of ethnic groups. We are
finding that many of the senior centers and private homes for seniors are re-
questing more programs. After visiting churches of different faiths throughout
the city, it became very clear that over half of the congregations are senior
citizens in most cases. Bakersfield has a large Hispanic population with a forty-
three percent population in our schools and eleven percent black. During most of
our large community meetings we find over half or more cannot speak English.
The youth drug problem in our city is wide spread with users from grammar school
to high school and at the two collegep. We feel that our drug awareness programs
have been successful. We need to attack it from two fronts, cut the source of
funds that they use to porchase drugs (shoplifting) and education in the schools.
We need the position of Community Service Specialist to work full time with the
employers and employees regarding the shoplifting problem.
At present we have five D.A.R.E. officers that are assigned to the Crime Preven-
tion Unit. These officers will be instructing students from K - 8 at forty-two
schools during the next two semesters. Funding is worked in partnership with
the school districts and one officer is under an O.C.J.P. grant. They are not
a part of this grant funding but the statistics will be submitted with the quarterly
reports.
Businesses throughout the city request programs for their employees on drug and
alcohol in the work place as we find that the majority of accidents, absenteeism
and tardiness are related. This has become a major p~oblem for the majority of
businesses. The oil related businesses are finding that over ninety percent of
their accidents are drug or alcohol influenced.
Due to the fact that we a~e in the earthquake belt, we find that the businesses
request that we combine this program. with other presentations.

Now that the Crime Prevention Unit has crime analysis capabilities it will be
able to measure the results of the neighborhood watch program within the target
area. The four areas will allow the comparison of one area with the Other
four in relation to the number of watches per area. This will show the results
of a decrease of crime in relationship to an increase of neighborhood watch
groups.
CCR CRIME ANALYSIS UNIT
NARRATIVE:
During the last number of years the CCR Unit has worked with the department to
develop a working crime analysis unit.
The first step was taken four years ago when the city was divided into (451)
areas and (16) districts. Each district has various numbers of small areas
within it's boundry. Thus crimes can be pinpointed to a ten by ten block
average area. The information is gathered by way of the offense reports
that are numbered by area code. This was started in 1987. Monthly reports
of various types are now made up for the needs of the Investigation and Oper-
ations divisions. Reports are made up showing the different crimes and the
number of each committed within each area and the total. The reports then
break it down by districts for partol and then another set of reports break
each type of crime down, such as, burglary, robberies ADW and other types.

PROGRAM GOAL: (B) New approach to reduce a large source of funds to purchase
drugs by youths.
PROGRAM COMPONENT # 1 : 11C BPD-CP
Objective: Reduction of funds used by youths of Bakersfield by upgrading the
prevention methods of shoplifting throughout the businesses in the city and
utilization of model businesses that can be monitored during the year and at
the end for results.'
Conduct programs to (10) businesses 'per month to (120)businesses and their
employees per year.
Activities: The object of this program is to present shoplifting prevention
programs to business owners, managers and employees. By prevention techniques
we can cut down the number of shoplifting crimes and the funds used by our
youth to purchase drugs and alcohol. Cut down the source, which i'n turn
reduces the drugs and alcohol used by a large number of youths.
The target number for this protion of the program is ten businesses per month.
Throughout the city individual businesses that are not located in shopping malls,
plus the stores in malls will be contacted to particpate in the program.
The success of the overall program regarding all of the businesses will be
evaluated by the reported shoplifting crimes each month that shows on our
monthly report.
Evaluation of the success of the program. We will ask ten stores that have
known high shoplifting crimes committed each month to be models for our program.
We will ask each one to give our unit their losses for the year and at the end
of one year we will take an account of the losses for the year. We will then be
able to gage if our training programs have cut the losses and the number of
detected shoplifts.

Activities:
The Bakersfield Police Department Crime Prevention Unit would like
to start a model program using a (5) church congregation as participants. They
will be made up of different ethnic congregations, black, Hispanic, white and
mixed. We have areas in our city that we have not been too successful in
presenting prevention programs. There are a number of minority churches in
these areas which have expressed an interest in this type of an approach.
The program would be as follows:
1) Present the overall program to the entire congregation at each
church. '
a) Have the majority of the families start a neighborhood watch
in their neighborhoods. (10) per church (50) per five churches
by staff and reserve volunteers additional by volunteers from the'
congregation.
b) Present programs to the senior citizens for the congregation
regarding safety and fraud and bunco. (2) per church (10) per
five churches.
c) Sexual assault awareness for the women members (2) per church
(10) per five churches.
d) Youth program pertaining to drugs and alcohol (2) per church
(10) per five churches.
e) Start and train a volunteer group to help put on the neighbor-
hood watches. Some of these churches have over three thousand
members. When a good number of the members participated, it will
take a group of volunteers to give neighborhood watch presentations
with our staff directing.
f) Present drug and alcohol awareness programs as family oriented
presentations. (2) per church (10) per year for larger congre-
gations the program number will triple.
Once this program becomes a success it will spread throughout the other churches
in the city. The unit will present the above same program to other churches on
request.

EVALUATION PLAN
The one thing that is important about this grant proposal is the fact that the
Bakersfield Police Department Crime Prevention Unit can finally provide O.C.J.P.
with results as to if Neighborhood Watch works. It has taken iour years to set
up a proven program for crime analysis to produce crime statistics and be able
to pinpoint crimes in 451 individual areas of the city.
The target area will be a controlled program in a high crime area that will produce
results that will show the effects of Neighborhood Watch.
It is also going to provide results in other areas of the city. The unit now
has maps of each area showing locations of Neighborhood Watch groups.
As the unit progresses with it's shoplifting program, it will be monitored through
the ten busineses with known high shoplifting that will consent to be models to
evaluate the program.
The D.A.R.E. programs that are presented to students K - 8 will take at least two
years to see the results, and in five years the sixth graders will be starting
their 12th year. Each year we will be able to see results as we are now in all
of the city grammar schools within the metro area. The City School District covers
schools in the city and the county. The program is also presented in two other
school districts within the metro area.
The D.A.R.E. program is not under the CCR grant program, but they are part of
the Crime Prevention Unit. Statistics will be provided to O.C.J.P.
Some programs will be evaluated as to the impact that comes from the individuals
that attended the presentations.
