What is a youth patrol?
The concept is simple: Young people work together in a formal structure, with help from adults, to patrol the campus of the school in pairs or small groups, acting nonconfrontationally to help maintain order, enforce rules, and report crime or crime-threatening situations. They are not tasked to apprehend criminals. They may serve as mediators with proper training. The patrol members may help with prevention education for students and staff. Youth patrols are one of the nine components of Youth Crime Watch.
