WHAT WE DO
FOR THE COMMUNITY
The role of the South African Police has changed dramatically in the post-1994 era (democracy). Accompanying the move to Community Policing, has come a greater sense of accessibility of the SAPS to the public, with community members looking to the police for help with a range of problems, some of which are not crime related.
In South Africa the creation of Community Police Forums (CPF) is a legal obligation for every police station in the Country. The establishment of CPF’s provided the communities the opportunity to engage with their local police station on a regular basis. This had improved accountability and policecommunity relations. It should be noted that the responsibility of the establishment and maintenance of CPF’s rests squarely with the station commissioner of each police station. This places the responsibility of the successful implementation and management of Community Policing firmly with the police service.
