Our richly diverse communities deserve quality and honest engagement. Our partnerships with business, schools, and houses of worship have provided us with a supportive role in the community. We continue to focus on positive programming for our youth, especially in communities of color, in order to prevent gang recruitment. Moreover, establishing trust and collaboration between law enforcement and our neighbors is vital for public safety and effective community policing.
“Community Policing is a collaborative partnership between the police and law-abiding citizens designed to prevent crime, arrest offenders, solve neighborhood problems and improve the quality of life in the community.”
