SLPD SEEKS COMMUNITY MEMBERS FOR CHIEF'S ADVISORY BOARD
The San Leandro Police Department is seeking community members interested in making a difference by joining the Police Chief’s Advisory Board. This board is currently made up of community members who represent the many segments of our great city. The board was created in 2013 to act as a community resource for the Police Department and Police Chief in the formation of public safety strategies, development of community policing concepts and increasing public awareness. The Board is intended to provide a form for discussions surrounding community concerns, with a goal to have a broad spectrum of viewpoints represented.
The role of the Board Members include, but are not limited to:
• Act as a sounding board for the Chief of Police regarding community needs and concerns, as well as provide community feedback for proposed police programs and priorities.
• Apprise the Chief of Police directly of the community’s need for police services and feedback on the delivery of services.
• Assist in educating the community at large about the function and role of the San Leandro Police Department.
• Attend monthly meetings in the San Leandro Police Station.
Meetings are held the first Tuesday of every month from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. To participate, you must be a City of San Leandro resident or business owner. Interested applicants may apply to join the Board by accessing the City of San Leandro’s website at:

Citizens play a critical role in creating a safe environment by observing and reporting any suspicious or criminal activity to the police. The San Leandro Police Department recommends that citizens do not participate in any direct verbal or physical involvement with suspicious persons or those engaged in the commission of crimes. Personal safety of our community is paramount. We encourage the San Leandro community to record the details of what they observe and to report those details to the police. This type of community involvement and partnership has proven to be a very effective crime prevention tool. Citizens act as the eyes and ears of the community first, and the extended eyes and ears of the San Leandro Police Department. Thank you for being a force-multiplier in our efforts to provide professional police services and safety to the community.
