Case Studies of 19 School Resource Officer (SRO) Programs
There has been a growing interest in placing sworn law enforcement officers in schools as School Resource Officers (SROs) as a means of improving school safety and improving relations between police officers and youth. However, when this project began in May 2000, relatively little was known about SRO programs. The purpose of the National Assessment was to identify what program “models” have been implemented, how programs have been implemented, and what lessons they may have for other programs. To obtain this information, Abt Associates and its subcontractors collected implementation data by telephone and on site from 19 SRO programs. This information forms the basis of this case studies report.
