Three Essential Elements Make Up a Crime Stoppers Program

Community
Crime Stoppers Programs are organized as a not for profit organization (Charity).  A civilian community board of directors provides direction as to the financial and promotional activities of the program.  The board of directors enhances the community involvement aspect, and its function is vital to the program success.  The Crime Stoppers program is funded by private donations and fund raising.  The reward money paid out by the program is from fund raising and donations from concerned citizens and businesses.  A community board of directors, made up of persons from through out the area, meets on a monthly basis to evaluate arrests and to decide on the size of rewards to be paid, up to $1,000.  Rewards are then distributed in a private manner to the callers.  

The calls are received at the local Crime Stoppers Call Center, supported and housed in the Colorado Springs Police Operations Center on 705 S. Nevada .  The phone is a stand alone instrument which does not provide caller ID, and conversations are not recorded.  The Call Center Coordinator receiving the information completes the tips information form, makes intial inquiries and then passes the information on to the investigating agency, local, state or federal.  Calls are accepted regarding any publicized request for information, such as "Crime of the Week" or such other crime(s) the caller has knowledge of.  

Media
Crime Stoppers methods, objectives, successes and phone numbers are publized on a regular basis by local media.  An unsolved "Crime of the Week" is given special treatment with details published in newspapers, on radio and in certain cases a re-enactment on television.

Law Enforcement
A special Crime Stoppers phone with a well-publicized number is provided to the community by the Colorado Springs Police Department on behalf of all law enforcement agencies in the 4th Judicial District.  Callers are assigned a special code number and never ask to give their names. If, after the investigation, the information leads to an arrest, the caller is entitled to a reward.

Put simply, Crime Stoppers is a three part approach to solving the crime problem.  Crime Stoppers relies on cooperation between the police, the media, and the general community to provide a flow of information about crime and criminals
