COMMUNITY POLICING
The Hawthorne Police Department is proud to host Evansville, Indiana, Police Chief Billy Bolin for a presentation on their nationally recognized Community Policing programs and concepts. A portion of this class was presented at the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) this year.
Learn how your passion to help can make a difference in your community. Chief Bolin will discuss the different community policing programs his department has introduced and how he incorporated a community policing culture into the department. However, it didn’t happen overnight and it wasn’t easy. Chief Bolin will share some of his insights on building trust and creating positive contacts with the youth in the community he serves. Don’t miss this great opportunity to learn from someone outside of CA!
