Community Resources

Purpose of the Unit

The Community Resource Unit organizes, establishes, maintains, expands, and promotes coordinated crime prevention and community related programs within the City of Concord. This includes an on-going outreach to groups, neighborhoods, businesses, schools, and other members of the public and private sectors. Their efforts result in pro-active crime awareness and crime prevention programs while developing and strengthening a healthy rapport with the community.

The unit accomplishes their goal through educational programs for clubs, organizations, schools, churches, businesses, individuals, senior citizens, and many others with crime prevention education, school resource programs, and interactive community-police initiatives.

The Community Resource Unit provides this broad base of services to Concord's citizenry and businesses while adhering to a community based policing philosophy.
