The organization provides continuous crime prevention related training to police and security professionals dedicated to making safer environments and communities.
The mission of TCPA is to encourage the prevention of crime through coordinated and concentrated efforts, and through programs and functions that encourage citizen involvement and participation, to preserve safe environments and communities for the citizens of Texas.
