Abstract
This paper presents a review of a community policing/community problem-solving program that was initiated on the 11th Street Corridor in North Philadelphia in 1996 and 1997. Herein, we forego a detailed outcome evaluation. Instead, our purpose is much more modest in that we attempt to provide those involved in public housing research and policy with a discussion of our experience with the implementation of the 11th Street Program. Specifically, we identify issues encountered throughout program implementation, and then comment on methods that other researchers, practitioners, and policymakers can adopt to circumvent such problems.
