Summary/Abstract: The paper starts from the fact that the Council for Municipal Prevention of the city of Požega, within the jurisdiction of the Požega police station, i.e., the Požega-Slavonia Police Department (hereinafter referred to as PU), despite being established by decision, has not been active for many years (it has no work program, does not hold meetings, does not carry out activities, and is therefore non-functional). This is despite numerous risks present in the community, as unfortunately confirmed by the recent death of a young man in the city center. Therefore, through research and a review of recent domestic and international literature, as well as the activities conducted by the police in the field of community prevention at both the national and local levels, this paper highlights the reasons and needs for the establishment and operation of any council within the community, including this one in the city of Požega. It also provides a framework proposal for the creation of a work program for the council as a fundamental document, thereby offering a proposed solution to the problem of the council's non-functionality and failure to fulfill its tasks.
