| Crime Stoppers is a unique concept that began in Albuquerque, New Mexico in 1976, designed to empower you, as a member of the public, to play a part in making our community a safer and fairer place to live in. |
| As a cooperative partnership between the community, the police and the media, Crime Stoppers encourages members of the community to share information with the police about wanted people, unsolved crimes and people they may be aware of that have committed criminal offences, but have not been arrested. |
| Crime Stoppers Australia Chairman, Peter Price, said the program meant that in the future this type of worldwide cooperation could be switched on whenever anybody, anywhere wanted to use it. |
