However, national juvenile-crime and school-based crime statistics, as well as state statistics and studies of county and local SRO programs, show how dramatically SROs can reduce crime not only on school campus, but also in the community.

    Numerous studies have shown that when teenagers are left to do whatever they want they do not always make the best choices. Between the hours of 3pm-6pm, people under the age of 18 are more likely to become victims of a crime. After-school programs appear especially appropriate in prevention efforts because research has documented that many youth are unsupervised during after-school hours; putting them at a greater risk of engaging in deviant activity. Boys & Girls Club offers youth to be exposed to new and positive activities that are supervised by responsible and caring adults.

    The broken windows theory was initiated from the idea of “order maintenance”. Order maintenance gave off the impression that the community was not the authority in control, but that it tolerated minuscule actions that encourage more serious and more violent crimes.

The theory expresses that while maintaining and keeping a watch over urban environments to help
