dc.description.abstractMany challenges must be conquered for community-based projects to succeed while adapting to new contexts. The proactive method of crime control known as "community policing" is gaining traction in countries all over the world. After the plan's official debut, it was put into action in numerous areas around the country with different degrees of success. Since crime has risen steadily over time however much the administration tries, there has been little success in community policing as a deterrent technique has been questioned. This study sought to determine stakeholders’ involvement and implementation of community policing in Taita Taveta County, Kenya. A descriptive survey research strategy was also employed and targeted the national police service (200), national government administrative officers (60), Nyumba Kumi forums (300), non-governmental organizations (20), and religious leaders (50). A total of 245 respondents were sampled. Data was collected using questionnaires. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and regression analysis. The research result showed that stakeholders’ involvement had a positive and significant relationship with implementation of community policing. However, majority of the residents have not taken part in community policing projects in the County. It is thus recommended that; the government should encourage the involvement of citizens in community policing projects in the County.en_US
