Crime effects all of us. It can endanger our personal safety, damage public and private property, create fear and lower our quality of life.

Police and Community Partnerships create an opportunity to work together to improve the safety of our community. We do this by sharing information about neighborhood crime issues and discussing ideas and tips on how to solve and prevent them. The safety of our community is a shared responsibility and crime prevention is everybody’s business.
