Abstract
This research report was commissioned to assess and evaluate the criminal justice and business case for the Officer Next Door (OND) program. Since its establishment in 1998, the OND program has sought to provide Housing Tasmania residents with a reassurance policing approach based on early intervention in criminal and anti-social behaviour on Housing Tasmania broadacre estates. Despite its perceived success, the OND program has not been subject to a critical review or evaluation over the ten years of its operation. As such, the tenth anniversary of the program marks a timely occasion for establishing whether it represents a best practice model for promotion across other jurisdictions.
