PalmettoPride to Lead June CPTED Seminars
Columbia, SC – PalmettoPride will lead a free training on Crime Prevention through Environmental Design (CPTED) along with Lancaster County and the Clemson University Police Department. This two-day course examines the relationship between our environmental cues in our physical surroundings and criminal activity.

- Techniques for implementing the strategies (i.e. Landscaping, Pavement Treatments, Architecture, Activity Support, Public Art, Lighting).
