SARA Problem-Solving Process

  

 The Department of   Justice published the pamphlet, Crime Analysis for Problem Solvers in 60 Small Steps. Step 7 addresses   the Problem solving process. Discuss the four components of the SARA model.   How does the SARA model contribute to identifying and narrowing the crime or   criminal issue for study? Why is it important to proceed through each step   consecutively and not skip steps?  
 

  Your initial post must be a minimum of 250 words in length. Support your post   with examples from your required reading material and /or other scholarly   sources, and provide in-text citation in APA style.  
 

  Respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts by Day 7. In your   responses, discuss the role SARA plays in identifying an appropriate crime   prevention program. How can the SARA process lead you astray when determining   a crime prevention strategy?
