The SCPD is calling on the public to volunteer their time and skills to help keep Santa Cruz safe. Community members will be able to engage in all facets of police work,while freeing up officers to focus on the most critical needs of the community. Police volunteers will be able to participate in everything from recordkeeping to investigations to maintaining police vehicles. They’ll also be able to participate in community service initiatives.
New Police Chief Kevin Vogel says, “As a police volunteer, you are helping develop this sense of unity and continually connect us with the community we serve.” City Councilmember-elect David Terrazas adds, “It’s an important first step in increasing our community partnerships in new ways and conserving and protecting valuable local resources for the long term.” Read more at Fox 35.
