Overview
Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) is a multi-disciplinary approach to deterring criminal behavior through environmental design using strategies that rely upon the ability to influence offender decisions that precede criminal acts. These principles of design affect elements of the built environment ranging from the small-scale, such as the strategic use of shrubbery and other vegetation, to the amount of opportunity for “eye on the street.”
CPTED is a nationally recognized program dedicated to raising awareness of how small changes in environmental design and effective use of your facilities can lead to a reduction in the incidence of crime and provides a safer environment for your patients, visitors and employees. In addition to learning how landscaping, fencing and interior walls can create natural and symbolic barriers, participants will learn crime prevention the rough natural means and how natural access control and surveillance decrease the opportunity for crime.
