The New Mexico Crime Prevention Association is a non-profit organization whose primary purpose is to encourage citizen, business, law enforcement, and community involvement in reducing crime and criminal opportunity.

Mission Statement

The NMCPA's mission is to establish within the State of New Mexico a professional crime prevention association; to promote interagency cooperation on matters dealing with crime prevention; to improve crime prevention capabilities within the state and to develop and promote statewide training programs to promote crime prevention.

History and Philosophy

The New Mexico Crime Prevention Association came together in 1976. Our association is proud to be one of the first associations in the country to be multi-based. The Women's Club of Albuquerque was one of the founding members of the Association. The Association formed in an effort to increase awareness of crime prevention strategies and to network with others on how to reduce their chances of becoming a victim of crime. Today the New Mexico Crime Prevention Association continues to network law enforcement, private security, business professionals and citizens together, to help TAKE A BITE OUT OF CRIME!
