It highlights the crime prevention program and fea- tures Crime of the Week articles, unsolved cases and educational material. Program Coordinator Jen- nifer Smith expects the new interactive website to help engage youth in the issues of crime in their lives and communities and encourage them to report crime. For many youth, the most direct form of communication is via a computer keyboard, she says. Another feature of the web- site is that tipsters can check the status of the investigation that they helped with. This provides tangible evidence that every bit of information we receive potentially helps in the fight against crime, says Smith. Since its inception in 1988, Crime Stoppers of Welling- ton County has received over 12,199 anonymous calls, which have helped po- lice seize over $16.5 million in illegal narcotics, recover more than $9.7 million in stolen property and lay 3,339 charges. In addition to the new website, Crime Stoppers is asking the community for help in raising awareness. Business owners could add the Crime Stoppers name and contact information to their signs or erect one pro- vided by the organization. Those sending out invoi- ces or statements could insert a Crime Stoppers pamphlet. Schools could put up posters or use the morning announce- ments to make sure everyone knows the number and web- site for the program. Service clubs and groups could have a representative speak at an event or an information booth could be arranged. Contact Crime Stoppers to arrange any of these or other outreach plans.
