Sažetak
In 2010, United Nations Development Programme and Ministry of Interior of Republic of Croatia have developed „Support in enforcement of systematic crime prevention work and establishment of Crime Prevention Coordination Units“. Project encourages the establishment of prevention coalitions, Councils for prevention in local communities in every city in Croatia. Research team from University of Zagreb, Faculty of Education and Rehabilitation Sciences was hired as an external consultant and evaluator of activities of Councils for prevention in Split and Cakovec. Main goal of the research team was to develop science based prevention policy whose owner will be a local community. This presentation will present initiatives conducted by the research team and Council for Prevention in City of Split during the period of 2010 and 2011. Science based principles incorporated in City of Split are following the model and steps of widely accepted model for community prevention- Communities that care. Steps of CTS model are needed for organization of prevention in local community and are as follows: (1) assessment of community readiness, (2) need assessment and research, (3) resources assessment, (4) developing prevention priorities, (5) prevention program implementation and (6) evaluation. Results gathered during the research in the first three phases of the implementation of the CTC model in Split will be shortly presented. Conducted assessment has shown the significant presence of underage drinking in Split. Because of that reason members of Council for prevention of City of Split and prevention department of police directorate Splitsko- dalmatinska have developed prevention strategy focused on preventing underage alcohol drinking in Split- „Alcohol, no thank you!“.. Main stress in this presentation will be on describing of process of developing prevention strategy based on scientific findings and assessed needs in local community. Also the benefits of collaboration between scientists and experts from practice in the process of establishing effective prevention in local community will be described.
