Our Mission
Our mission is to create community-driven initiatives to reduce both crime and harm in high-risk micro-locations within the City of St. Louis.
Our Vision
To be a resident driven and crime prevention initiative that uses quantitative data that aids in the reduction of crime.
The St. Louis Public Safety Collaborative (STLPSC) is a group of community stakeholders, working to promote the co-production of public safety to reduce crime. We explore community driven approaches to resolve/reduce harm in high-risk areas of St. Louis that are identified using recent crime data and reports. We are a group of local volunteers who are working to improve the quality of life of neighborhoods.

How We Improve Public Safety
Risk Terrain Modeling
Risk Terrain Modelin (RTM) is a risk assessment technique and diagnostic method to identify the spatial attractors of criminal behavior and environmental factors that are conducive to crime.
DICE
Data-Informed Community Engagement (DICE) is an evidence-based, community-centered approach that empowers communities to co-create equitable public safety strategies through data analysis that is transparent, effective, and tailored to local problems. DICE is powered by Risk Terrain Modeling (RTM) and delivered via RTDMx software that diagnoses crime patterns, identifies environmental conditions that contribute to crime problems, and drives decision making for public safety. RTM seeks to reduce crime by focusing on places, not people.
