Community policing is about forming partnerships and working together to prevent crime and solve community problems.

Officers are assigned to a specific geographical area and work proactively with apartment complexes and neighborhood groups to identify and solve problems. This includes:

• Offering a variety of programs and security tips to enhance safety at home and work;
• Speaking to neighborhood groups and apartment complexes when requested;
• Administering the Crime-Free Multi-Housing Program and providing free residential security surveys;
• Using proactive problem solving methods to address specific community issues; and
• Overseeing lost and found property.

Community policing also extends into the schools in the form of School Resource and D.A.R.E. officers.
