Without the efforts of Nevada’s law enforcement agencies this publication would not be possible. We would like to extend our sincere thanks and appreciation to each agency for their dedication and commitment in providing accurate and timely crime statistics to the state Uniform Crime Reporting Program. If we can be of assistance, please contact the Uniform Crime Reporting Program at 775-684-6262 or email [email protected]. This publication is available online at: gsd.nv.gov/About/UCR/Uniform-Crime-Reporting/ Respectfully, Julie Butler Division Administrator 9 This page was left intentionally blank 10 APPRECIATION The success of the Nevada Uniform Crime Reporting Program hinges on the complete, accurate and timely participation of all of Nevada's law enforcement agencies. The program was established with the support of criminal justice and law enforcement agencies statewide in July of 1991 (NRS 179A.078). Although responsibility for actual development and execution of the program was vested in the Nevada Department of Public Safety, the individuals at the municipal, county and state levels who submit the raw data are the entities ultimately critical to its viability and success. Accordingly, we recognize the following dedicated people.
