The Community Policing Dispatch is the award-winning e-newsletter of the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS Office). Produced monthly since 2007, the Dispatch has been advancing the COPS Office’s mission by educating its readers about issues pertaining to the implementation and practice of community policing. The Dispatch publishes a wide range of articles, but its primary aims are to showcase best practices in implementing community policing and to give readers the opportunity to learn from their peers. We aim to be consumer-focused with a distilled message and to include high-quality links to resources and additional reading so that an innovator within a law enforcement agency can identify promising practices and start assembling information for implementation.
The Dispatch has twice been honored by the National Association of Government Communicators with Gold Screen awards for outstanding e-Newsletter (2009) and outstanding Web Article (2010).
