The
National Shoplifting Prevention Coalition (NSPC) harnesses the collective
efforts of retail and corporate entities, justice and law enforcement
agencies and schools and community groups in a nationwide, non-partisan
alliance to address shoplifting. The purpose of the Coalition is to
institute a coordinated effort to improve the way our nation and local
communities regard, prevent and respond to shoplifting.
Goals:
- Provide
a neutral forum for the identification and development of community-wide
best practices in shoplifting prevention.
- Coordinate
the collective efforts of its members to promote, disseminate and
implement comprehensive shoplifting prevention action plans in their
local communities.
-
Distribute shoplifting prevention and character-building programs
for youth as a crucial step in building honest consumers and a workforce
less prone to theft and fraud.
-
Empower members of the community to effect positive change in shoplifting
prevention far beyond that which they could accomplish alone.
Vision
The
united voice and focused actions of Coalition members will result in:
-

An improvement in the character and conduct of individual communities
and their future workforce.
