The Center for Problem-Oriented Policing is a nonprofit organization focused on advancing problem-oriented policing in open and democratic societies. Based in Madison, Wisconsin, its work centers on making information available to help police address specific crime and disorder problems more effectively, drawing on the collaboration of practitioners, researchers, and universities. The organization supports learning and training through its POP Center resources, including guides and problem analysis tools, which have been widely used in police training and higher education since the early 2000s. Its primary audience comprises police practitioners and academic partners seeking practical approaches to policing challenges, with the aim of improving public safety outcomes. A recent development of note is the ongoing expansion of its digital learning materials and curriculum resources since the POP Center’s website launch in 2003.
