Office of Community Liaison

The Office of Community Liaison (OCL) works in each of APD's 3 regions as dictated by the department's and the community's needs. Outreach objectives include attending safety fairs, participating in Town Hall/neighborhood meetings, collaborating on projects with officers and community groups, and more.

OCL's outreach objectives include, but are not limited to:

Attending safety fairs where the community can interact positively with police officers and other public safety representatives in their neighborhoods
Participating in Town Hall/neighborhood meetings called to address specific issues
Collaborating on projects with officers and community groups, which address long or short-term problems
Establishing communication links and partnerships between the police department and Austin residents
Coordinating ongoing projects, special events and celebrations for the officers and those we serve in Austin
Working collaboratively to assist one another within our outreach areas
