Citizens on Patrol
The Farmers Branch Citizens on Patrol Program, through active volunteer service with the Farmers Branch Police Department, reduces the amount of time sworn officers of the Farmers Branch Police Department spend on non-enforcement duties. Increasing the amount of time officers can dedicate to crime prevention and enforcement activities translates into increased safety and security for our community.
Examples of volunteer service include, but are not limited to, conducting house watches, performing community patrols, assisting with search and rescue activities, staffing the information desk in the lobby of the Police Department, and many others.
Prerequisite
The prerequisite is the successful completion of the Farmers Branch Police Department Citizen Police Academy.
