The Norwalk Police Department is committed to serving the citizens of Norwalk. We place a strong emphasis on service to the community, training and education and community interaction. A variety of programs are scheduled throughout the year to meet public need and keep the public informed on mutual topics of interest. Some examples of these programs are the Citizens Police Academy, Rape Aggression Defense, D.A.R.E., Safety Town, fingerprinting of children, juvenile drug testing, Cops in School, Honor Guard, scout building tours, Helmet Smart Program, career shadowing and internships. In addition, employees volunteer a large amount of time to other functions within the community such as sitting on local boards, coaching, involvement with schools, Saturday school monitoring, foster care and teaching, to name a few. As a department, we encourage programs designed for citizen involvement and employee community involvement community/citizens and the department's relationship with the community. Upon examination of our frequent citizen/service surveys, the Norwalk Police Department consistently receives high marks, to the credit of our employees.
