CRIME & PREVENTION

In addition to prosecuting criminals, crime prevention remains a #1 priority for the Office of the City Attorney. Neighborhood Prosecutors work closely with community organizations, Neighborhood Watch groups, and Neighborhood Councils to provide crime awareness and prevention information throughout Los Angeles.

Prosecutors are available to assist you in preventing crime in your neighborhood.

  • To contact your neighborhood prosecutor and learn about crime prevention in your neighborhood call the Neighborhood Prosecutor Program Hotline at 1-877-LA CARES or e-mail neighborhood@atty.lacity.org


SCHOOL-BASED CHILD ABUSE INVESTIGATIONS
Successfully combating child abuse and neglect requires a dedicated partnership among the numerous agencies with responsibility for protecting children, including: school districts, child welfare agencies, law enforcement, and prosecutorial agencies. The Task Force Recommendations for Investigating Child Abuse Reported by Schools outlines best practices for stakeholders in effectively preventing and addressing child abuse situations.


REPORTING A CRIME
Crime reports or other violations of law or court orders must be made to a law enforcement/ investigatory agency. To report a non-emergency crime in the City of Los Angeles contact the Los Angeles Police Department, or the agency with jurisdiction over the violation. Non-emergency crimes include crimes in progress or other situations that require police response, but that are non-life threatening, such as loud parties, a group of juveniles loitering in front of your home, neighbor disputes, etc.
