When police officers, communities, and great relationships come together, the results can be transformative. In New Jersey’s highly-diverse Capital City, where people from all walks of life long for a better and brighter future, the Trenton Civic Trust is working in tandem with the Trenton Police Department to launch a joint initiative to recruit a volunteer auxiliary police force to improve police and community relations.
Trenton Civic Trustees have won adoption of an Auxiliary Police Force in Trenton and are now working with the City to recruit applicants from Trenton’s neighborhoods as a component of increasing public safety through implementing a comprehensive mutual respect policy between police and the community. Comprised of highly trained, dedicated volunteer Trenton residents, the Trenton Auxiliary Police Force will serve as a vital link between the police and the community.
