HPD's Nationally Recognized Community Affairs bureau
Our mission:
"To engage with our Community in innovative and creative ways by implementing the core philosophy of community oriented policing in measurable real-world terms."
The Hawthorne Police Department’s Community Affairs Bureau (CAB) serves as the focal contact point for a multitude of neighborhood organizations, parent groups, and individuals that want to make a difference in the community. Members of the CAB are out in the community doing education, outreach and helping to organize and plant the seeds of change with regards to making Hawthorne a great place to live, work and play. Whether it’s an anti-drug presentation in the morning, a visit from Scottie the dog in the afternoon or a neighborhood watch meeting in the evening, the CAB is there. Members of the CAB serve as the initial point of non-emergency contact for community questions and concerns. CAB members strive to be accessible and able to offer advice and help people to work together as a community to solve problems.
