C.A.P.S. Meeting

The partnership between police and community is the foundation of Chicago's own philosophy of community policing, known as CAPS — the Chicago Alternative Policing Strategy. (C.A.P.S.) This is a monthly meeting for the 23rd District ( bounded by Lawrence, Lake Shore Drive, Fullerton, and Clark ). Stay Aware of What's Going on in your Community! C.A.P.S. brings the police, the community, and other City agencies together to identify and solve neighborhood crime problems. C.A.P.S. has monthly community meetings all over Chicagoland where residents have the opportunity to talk to the officers who patrol their neighborhood. Residents are encouraged to bring questions or concerns regarding safety, quality of life issues and City services. Each police district is divided in beats, and each beat has a team of 8 to 9 beat officers assigned to it. Police representatives from these teams and local community leaders conduct the CAPS meetings. Call 23rd District Community Policing Office at (312) 744-0064 to verify dates/times/locations. This is a Make A Difference Partner Event
