Beyond Boundaries: Understanding CAP's Comprehensive Crime Prevention Strategy

At Community Active Protection (CAP), our mission extends far beyond the immediate boundaries of your suburb. While our proactive community patrols focus on residential areas, our reach and your protection extend much further than you might imagine. In this final article of our series, we delve into the bigger picture of CAP's operations, showcasing our unique Offensive Crime Strategy and how it creates a safer environment for everyone.   

The Bigger Picture   

CAP is not just about responding to incidents within your neighborhood. Our comprehensive crime prevention strategy involves a multi-faceted approach that includes corporate donations, strong partnerships with Crime Intelligence sections of the South African Police Service, and a dedicated team of crime analysts and Special Intervention Units. This collaboration allows us to hunt down criminals and apprehend them before they can harm you or your community.   

Offensive Crime Strategy

Our Offensive Crime Strategy is one of a kind. By leveraging advanced CCTV with number plate recognition capabilities, open-source data, and a wide network of criminal profiles and known associates, we can proactively intercept and neutralise threats. This often happens just as criminals are about to launch a violent attack, ensuring that they are apprehended before causing harm. 

The CAP APP

In addition to our physical patrols and intelligence operations, the CAP APP extends our protection to wherever you are in South Africa. This app provides location-based emergency support, thanks to our partnership with a large responder network. Whether you're at work, fetching your kids from school, or visiting family, you can rest assured that CAP is there to keep you safe.   

Extending the Zone of Protection

Crime and violence can impact you anywhere, not just at home. Even if you think you've seen something suspicious while away from home, you can still call us at 0861 227 227 to report it. Sometimes, information is as powerful as bullets. Caring about each other, even when we are strangers, is greater than the force of harm. What you do matters, and we want to ensure we can keep fighting crime and keeping you safe.

Creating Goodwill and Understanding

We want to foster goodwill, understanding, and clarity around the function of CAP. By highlighting our broader reach and comprehensive crime prevention strategy, we hope to create a stronger bond with our community. Your safety is our priority, and we are dedicated to ensuring that you feel protected, no matter where you are.

A Vision for a Safe South Africa

We are deeply committed to our beloved South Africa and want everyone to believe in a safer SA. Our efforts aim to bring back South Africans abroad and bring prosperity to our democracy. Together, we can create a future where everyone feels secure and confident in their community.   

CAP's mission is to provide unparalleled protection for our community. Our efforts go beyond the boundaries of your suburb, encompassing a wide range of proactive measures designed to keep you safe. Remember, wherever you are, CAP is there. By working together, we can create a safer environment for everyone.
