Community Relations Division

Community Relations Division

The Community Relations Division is a special division within the police department, having the very important task of creating relationships and fostering the good will of the department with its residents. The Division is also very involved in the youth of Lodi, participating in many events throughout the year. Events held have included, bicycle / rodeo / safety day, National Night Out, Read Across America, L.E.A.D, Coffee with a Cop, senior citizen community awareness, to name a few. This unit always interacts with our school children and also runs the annual Lodi Junior Police Academy for all Lodi 7th grade students, which has been running annually for nearly 20 years, fostering a positive relationship with our children.
