Four elements makeup Weed and Seed: law enforcement; community policing; prevention, intervention and treatment; and neighborhood restoration. Law enforcement activities constitute the "weed" portion of the program. Revitalization, which includes prevention, intervention, treatment services and neighborhood restoration constitute the "seed" element. Community policing serves as "bridge" to link the program elements together.
Prevention, intervention and treatment goals include providing safe havens and positive youth development. Neighborhood restoration goals include development of a comprehensive community strategies plan.
