The Danville Police Department hosted their monthly community engagement walk in the Fox Hollow area on Thursday. This is a monthly event to check in with residents and solve any concerns citizens may have.
In efforts to strengthen their mission, the Community and Youth Engagement Unit was established. The officers assigned to this unit focus on several areas: crime prevention, community education, youth and community engagement, and blight and nuisance abatement.
The focus of the community engagement walks is to build public trust and develop positive relationships between officers and community members.
