TARGETED OFFENDER PARTNERSHIP STRATEGY (TOPS)

The Targeted Offender Partnership Strategy (TOPS) is a directed effort of the SLCPD’s violent crime reduction plan. It’s an OFFENDER-BASED, systemwide partnership program that supports the other two components of the violent crime reduction plan, Hot Spot Policing and Problem Oriented Place Based Policing (POPBP). It aims to reduce crime and community harm through a collaborative approach directed toward the most prolific, habitual offenders in the Salt Lake City area.
