Community Policing and You
Community Policing is a management approach that promotes community, government, business and police partnerships; proactive problem solving; and community engagement to address the cause of crime, fear of crime and other community issues. We must all cooperate together in addressing these problems; law enforcement needs community input and support.

We ask people in the community to contact us individually or have a spokesperson for a neighborhood group and even business organizations. Some areas which we can assist the community in are:
  • Home security checks
  • Neighborhood problems
  • Juvenile problems
  • Business problems with Retail Theft, Bad Checks, Employee Safety
  • Scams against the elderly
