We strive to build trust and partnerships with our residents through proactive and transparent policing practices and to serve as positive role models and leaders in our community.

Core Values

Integrity - We will commit to the highest standards of ethical behavior and accountability; ensuring to always do the right thing, for the right reasons, at the right time. 
​
Compassion - We value every interaction and demonstrate genuine concern, care and empathy to those we serve. We recognize the perspectives of those we serve may be different than our own and suspend judgement so we can seek understanding and preserve the dignity of all.
​
Excellence - Striving for excellence in all that we do; and understanding that striving for excellence means continually seeking ways to hone our craft and be innovative.

Our Ethos

​Our community is the most important aspect of our profession. They are not dependent on us, we are dependent on them. They are not an interruption in our work, they are the purpose of it. They are not an outsider in our business, they are part of it. We are not doing them a favor by serving them, they are doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so.

Our Motto

"People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."
