Spokane C.O.P.S. Block Watch Presentation – Sept 12

Spokane C.O.P.S. Block Watch Presentation – Sept 12

All are invited to attend a Block Watch presentation for the community by Spokane C.O.P.S. Executive Director Patrick Striker at the South Hill Library, 3324 South Perry St., on Tuesday, Sept 12th, 6:30pm.  Additional guest speakers will include C.O.P.S. Southeast Block Watch Coordinator Kendall Eminger and Spokane C.O.P.S. Program Manager Maurece Vulcano.

Spokane C.O.P.S. Block Watch is one of the most effective and least costly ways to prevent crime and reduce fear. Block Watch fights the isolation that crime both creates and feeds upon. It forges bonds among residents, helps reduce burglaries and robberies, and improves relations between the police and the communities they serve.

Topics of discussion will be:

  • Having the fast track to reporting crime and unsafe conditions.
  • Notifications about crime trends and scams in your neighborhood.
  • Being a part of community crime prevention.
  • Education on how to protect yourself and your property.
  • Having the means to stop crime in your neighborhood.

For more information, please call the South Hill Library at 444-5300 or Spokane C.O.P.S. at 625-3301.

C.O.P.S. Northeast Offers Operation Family ID Every Friday, 2pm-4pm

C.O.P.S. Northeast Offers Operation Family ID Every Friday, 2pm-4pm

The C.O.P.S. Shop for Northeast Spokane (Located at the Northeast Precinct 5124 E. Market St. Spokane) now offers Operation Family ID (OFID).

OFID is a program where volunteers take fingerprints, updated digital photos and other identifying information such as name, height, etc. about children or vulnerable adults with dementia or other disabilities.  This information is incredibly helpful to police in the event someone is lost or abducted.  Police send Amber or Silver Alerts for missing children or adults and dispatch as much relevant information as possible to ensure they are found quickly. Having current, accurate information about those we care for can make all the difference in the world in the critical first hours that someone is lost.

None of this information is kept or stored by Spokane C.O.P.S.  Everything is transferred to the parent or loved one for their storage.  In addition, a DNA Swab and container is provided in the ID kit.

Spokane Police and C.O.P.S. recommends all families bring their children and any other vulnerable adult to a C.O.P.S. Shop regularly to keep up to date information on file.

Call C.O.P.S. Northeast at 625-3343 for more details and to schedule an appointment.
