The Moorpark Police Department is proud to announce another “Coffee with a Cop” event. Coffee with a Cop brings the police department and community members together, over coffee, to discuss issues and learn more about resources, services, and needs of the community. On Tuesday, May 21st, from 11:00 am to 12:00 pm, Moorpark Chief of Police Darin Hendren, along with deputies from the Moorpark Police Station, will be at the Starbucks in Target located at 800 New Los Angeles Ave, in the city of Moorpark, sharing a cup of coffee with neighbors. Community trust is one of the key elements to the success of the Moorpark Police Department. By sitting down and having a simple conversation, deputies and the community members they serve, can continue building and growing together. The Moorpark 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. Moorpark Police Department staff will also have handouts explaining our Volunteer in Policing program and our Explorer program, as well as scam and fraud prevention. For our Spanish-speaking residents, we will have Spanish-speaking Deputies at the event. The goal of Coffee with a Cop is to get to know the community better and hear about issues the residents feel are important. This community-building event promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie that make our neighborhoods safer. Building relationships – one cup at a time. |
