The purpose behind this paper is to examine how peacemaking can make it easy to comprehend the role of police officers, and for the criminal justice career students to understand it. First I will be starting with the different phases of policing. Also I will be discussing peacemaking philosophy and how police officers can apply it within their policing profession.

The entire mission seems to be focused on discovering a balance among providing security while also creating relationships with the citizens. We believe peacemaking can assist in this overall mission. When looking in the next paragraph there a few of the major areas of policing and also discussing how a peacemaking method could be helpful.
