Volunteers In Police Service
The Volunteers in Police Service (VIPS) program was established in a mandate by President Bush as a result of the events that occurred on September 11, 2001. The VIPS program provides support and resources for agencies interested in developing or enhancing a volunteer program and for citizens who wish to volunteer their time and skills with a community law enforcement agency. The program’s ultimate goal is to enhance the capacity of state and local law enforcement to utilize volunteers.
In June of 2008 the Littleton Police Department implemented the VIPS program. Since that time, volunteers have been able to provide assistance to the officers and community in the following areas: community outreach (Halloween Festival), cruiser maintenance, prosecutorial assistance, house checks and front desk assistance to the administrative staff. Since June, volunteers have logged 1,168 hours of service to the community and department. Utilizing the formula provided by the Federal Government, those hours of service calculated into $23,091.36 savings to the tax payer. We would like to extend a special thanks to the current members of the VIPS program and the steering committee. Your hard work and dedication has truly been an asset to the community.
On February 14th the member of VIPS hosted a Ham & Bean dinner at the United Methodist Church on Main Street. The dinner was a HUGE success and we would like to thank everyone for their support!
If you would like more information about the program or are interested in becoming a member, please feel free to contact the Littleton Police Department.
