Crime Prevention

The goal of crime prevention is to minimize or eliminate opportunities for crime and violence in the county. To achieve this, our department supports different programs and services to reduce crime opportunities through increased security, education and community involvement. We hope to build a sense of shared responsibility among King George County citizens to empower them to assist us in protecting themselves and their neighbors.
