Intelligence-Led Community Policing, Community Prosecution, and Community Partnerships (IL3CP) is a unique approach to community policing that extends community partnerships to include prosecutorial and community service organizations along with law enforcement. The innovative program was developed and refined by the Rockland County District Attorney's Office (RCDAO) in New York State. Based on the promising implementation, the International Association of Chiefs of Police worked with diverse three jurisdictions - Mesa, Arizona; Newport News, Virginia; and Saint Paul, Minnesota - to implement similar approaches tailored to their circumstances and needs. This publication provides an overview of the initial program as implemented in Rockland County, as well as the efforts to pilot IL3CP in the other jurisdiction and the important lessons learned about benefits, successes, and challenges in implementing this innovative approach.
