With the elimination of our Precinct Community Policing Teams, we have received many questions from community members about where to turn when they have a question, concern or inquiry. We put together the following resource list to hopefully assist going forward.
As always, please let us know if you have any questions.
Stay safe and well.

About Crime Prevention Coordinators. Crime Prevention Coordinators (CPCs) are experts in crime prevention techniques.
