Crime Prevention Tips

The Community Outreach Unit wants to remind residents that no one knows your neighborhood better than you and the people who live in your community.  Through teamwork, we can stop crime before it happens.

  • You see someone looking into windows and parked cars
  • You hear unusual noises
  • You see property being taken out of houses when the residents are not at home.
  • You see cars, vans, or trucks moving slowly with no apparent destination or without lights.
  • You see a stranger sitting in a car or stopping to talk to a child.
  • You see an abandoned car.
  • You hear someone screaming or shouting for help.

Don't wait for someone else to take the lead. Everyone in the community shares the responsibility for making your community safe. Report these incidents to the police and become a partner against crime!

Community Outreach

The Jupiter Police Department is committed to building and strengthening its alliance with the community. We look forward to meeting with you at one of your homeowner association meetings, or you can take advantage of one of our many programs, which include:

  • Group tours of the police department
  • Citizen Ride Along Program

The ride along program is a popular method of establishing relationships with community members and allowing citizens to see first hand, the role of their police officers, by riding with them while on patrol.
