An effective means in successful community policing is to establish a volunteer police chaplain program at little of no cost to the PD. Assigning volunteer police chaplains to specific police sectors where their respective congregations are located accomplishes three purposes. 1) Clergy are known in the community and are privy to issues in their specific neighborhood. 2) A PD has an additional and respected voice in neighborhoods. 3) Parental control of neighborhood youth is enhanced. PD chaplains’ riding with police officers sends a message to the community that the faith community is a player in reducing crime and public nuisances.
