Due to a combination of municipal budget cuts, decreased manpower, and a renewed interest in community partnership, everyday citizens are increasingly joining the police rank and file. This trend provides low-cost solutions for a number of policing problems, but also brings its own special challenges and considerations. This work provides a historical overview of volunteer police in the United States and abroad; an practical overview of volunteer programs throughout the United States including training programs, requirements and qualifications; a close examination of two central types of laws governing volunteer police units: the "Stand Your Ground" law and the "Good Samaritan" law; and overview of the dangers that can face volunteer police units, and a comparative analysis with volunteer programs worldwide. It will be of interest to researchers in police studies, criminal justice administration, and for policymakers and practitioners working with police organization and training. . 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Policing,$x2194-6213 606 $aCriminology 606 $aSocial policy 606 $aCriminology and Criminal Justice, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B0000 606 $aSocial Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34020 615 0$aCriminology. 615 0$aSocial policy. 615 14$aCriminology and Criminal Justice, general. 615 24$aSocial Policy. 676 $a353.36 700 $aBartels$b Elizabeth C$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01228527 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484688303321 996 $aVolunteer Police in the United States$92852034 997 $aUNINA
