ACPD to Hold Quarterly Outreach Meetings Next Month

The Arlington County Police Department has scheduled its next batch of quarterly community outreach meetings for next month.

The department previously sent officers to individual neighborhood meetings but earlier this year, citing budget and staffing challenges, it scaled back to two community meetings each quarter — one each for northern and southern portions of the county.

More on the planned meetings from ACPD:

The Community Outreach Unit will host its Fall quarterly meetings, covering community issues, crime prevention tips and addressing resident concerns, in October. These meetings will offer an opportunity to interact with the Outreach Team serving your neighborhood and gather insightful information regarding police department information, crime trends and prevention.

The Community Outreach Teams will host their quarterly meetings at the following times and locations:

  • North Outreach Team
    Wednesday, October 17, 2018 at 7:00 p.m.
    Washington-Lee High School Little Theatre, 1301 N. Stafford Street
  • South Outreach Team
    Thursday, October 11, 2018 at 7:00 p.m.
    Arlington Mill Community Center, 909 S. Dinwiddie Street

Residents wishing to stay informed about the Community Outreach Unit are encouraged to subscribe to email newsletters, which are sent periodically and include information about the Unit’s programs and events, as well as department news and information.
