The International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) will be recognizing outstanding community policing initiatives at its annual conference in Denver October 3-7, 2009.
The Community Policing Award, given out by the IACP's Community Policing Committee since 1998, recognizes outstanding initiatives undertaken by law enforcement agencies worldwide.
The award identifies and rewards best practices in community policing by recognizing police organizations that use the power of collaboration and partnerships to make communities safer from crime and terrorism.
The winners and finalists provide models for improved police services on issues that are specific to individual communities but are valuable for communities around the world.
The Community Policing Award is presented in five categories for law enforcement agencies that serve populations of varying sizes. Additionally agencies that use community policing philosophies in the furtherance of homeland security initiatives are eligible for special homeland security recognition.
o Agencies Serving a Population Fewer than 20,000
o Agencies Serving a Population 20,001 to 50,000
o Agencies Serving a Population 50,001 to 100,000
o Agencies Serving a Population 100,001 to 250,000

Share with the world how your department has addressed these challenges through collaboration, prevention and proactive partnerships.
