The Thousand Oaks Police Department is proud to announce “Coffee with a Cop” day in conjunction with Autism Society Ventura County. Coffee with a Cop brings deputies and community members together, over coffee, to discuss issues and learn more about resources, services, and needs of the community. Join us Monday, April 15th, from 8:00am to 10:00am, at Starbucks, 540 N. Ventu Park Rd, Thousand Oaks, sharing a cup of coffee with neighbors. This month, members from Autism Society Ventura County will be joining us, in honor of Autism Acceptance Month. The Autism Society Ventura County was founded in 1994 by local parents, educators, and professionals to help support newly diagnosed families and develop needed local resources. The mission of the Autism Society Ventura County is to create connections, empowering everyone in the Autism Community to live fully. Community trust and transparency are some of the key elements to the success of the Thousand Oaks Police Department. By sitting down and having a simple conversation, deputies, and the community members they serve, can continue building and growing together. The Thousand Oaks Police Department invites the community to come out and ask questions, voice concerns, get crime prevention advice, and get to know the officers in your neighborhood. This is a relaxed, informal event and is not about speeches or agendas, but simply about casual conversation. The goal of Coffee with a Cop is to get to know the community better and hear about issues the residents feel are important. Building relationships – one cup at a time. |
