It takes more than good police work to make our neighborhoods safer. It takes the police, the community and city agencies working together to really make a difference. Police officers still respond to emergencies, enforce the law and arrest criminals. But with CAPS, officers also work with you and your neighbors to prevent crime before it happens and to solve problems in your community. Getting involved with your District Advisory Committee This group helps to identify root causes of crime and disorder in your neighborhood.
Many districts also have youth and family oriented subcommittees. .
This group identifies court cases of concern to the community and tracks those cases through the court process. Your group might be interested in working with the subcommittee to track cases in and around your childrens' school. The Walking School Bus is another tool available to help you keep your neighborhood safe. Representatives are available to help you establish a Walking School Bus in your community and provide training materials. All rights reserved.
