Citizens Offering Police Support
Initiated several years ago, the Citizens Offering Police Support (COPS) program is nationally recognized. The program organizes volunteers who are able to support and assist our police department in numerous activities ot requiring a commissioned police officer. The friendships and bonds that are created by participants in the program are invaluable. There are many ways a volunteer can assist the Gig Harbor Police Department. Whenever possible, the Gig Harbor Police Department will match a volunteer’s specific skills and interests to particular tasks. Their role is to observe and report information, though the volunteer is prohibited from intervening in any manner. For more information contact COPS Coordinator Chief Busey at (253) 851-2236.
