The session explores key principles of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED), successful enforcement partnerships, and proactive steps housing agencies can take to improve resident and staff safety.

Featured speakers:

  • Craig Gundry, CIS

  • Hector Gonzalez, CIS

  • Leon Lipsick, West Palm Beach Housing Authority
