The Emerson-Garfield Neighborhood Council and Spokane C.O.P.S. are jointly hosting a neighborhood crime prevention meeting and workshop on Thursday, July 26 at Knox Presbyterian Church (806 W Knox). It runs from 6 to 8pm. There will be presentations from Dale Wells, the SPD resource officer for Emerson-Garfield, and Mark Sterk, who oversees safety and security for Spokane Public Schools, as well as opportunities for discussions and feedback. Whether you’ve been a victim of crime or simply want to hear directly from police officers who patrol this area, this workshop will be a great way to get informed and identify solutions.
Please share this event info with your neighbors. Here is a flyer.
The Spokane Police Department is asking residents for feedback on the community’s perceptions of them. This should be a quick 5-minute survey.

Neighborhood Observation Patrol (NOP) patrols can help make your neighborhood safer! Be a part of the solution – join a NOP team!
The Neighborhood Observation Patrol are volunteer citizens who patrol areas, reporting suspicious or unlawful activity in their community to assist the police and help keep your neighborhood safer.
NOP volunteers are trained by the Spokane Police Department in areas of safety, patrol procedures, communications, first aid, and basic law enforcement policies and procedures. Volunteers use a vehicle equipped with cell phone, flashlight, binoculars, first aid kit, fire extinguisher and reflective vests.
Our vehicles are professional and well-marked, and community and volunteer feedback has been strong.
To learn more about how you can volunteer for Spokane C.O.P.S. Neighborhood Observation Patrol, contact your nearest C.O.P.S. shop or Maurece Vulcano [mvulcano@spokanecops.org, 509.625.3301], Program Manager for Spokane C.O.P.S., would be happy to answer any question you may have.
