Please join us Wednesday, October 2nd, from 4 PM to 6 PM at the Ridge Hill Town Square for Afternoon Coffee with a Cop! Come meet and talk with your local Yonkers Police Officers and neighbors. Coffee with a Cop brings the local police and the community members they serve together – over a simple cup of coffee – to discuss issues and learn more about each other. We will also have our Mobile Command Center on display and a maybe a surprise visit by one of our K9's! Bring the kids!!

Coffee with A Cop was launched by the Hawthorne (California) Police Department in 2011. Members of the HPD were looking for ways to interact more successfully with the citizens they served each day, and hit upon a simple plan to break through the barriers that have been built over the years - a cup of coffee. In less than five years, Coffee with a Cop events have been hosted in all 50 states and is one of the most successful community oriented policing programs across the country. The program has also expanded to outside the Unites States to Canada, Europe, Australia, Africa, and Latin America. The key to Coffee with a Cop’s growing success is that it opens the door for interactions outside of the crisis situations that typically bring law enforcement officers and community members together. The Yonkers Police Department is proud to include Coffee with a Cop as part of our many community outreach programs. Hope to see you there, and thank you for supporting the Yonkers Police Department! Cops + Community = Success!!
