The HOPE unit has been created and the attached/symbiotic CIT unit was expanded this month. These units works closely with Fire, Medstar, NPO's, outreach groups, business owners, and patrol officers. HOPE recently spearheaded the city's response to the effects of the COVID crisis on the homeless community. Now CIT and HOPE are expanding their service to the homeless, many of which are in need of services from both teams.

Although there has been no movement to permanently expand the bike unit because of budgetary restraints, the unit was significantly augmented the past few months with NPO's to respond to protest details. We are in the beginning stages of planning for short notice supplementation of the unit to address event based issues that occur in the downtown area.

Protest details during the past month pulled many of the A district NPO's. When possible, Central NPO's and Bike unit personnel conduct regular patrols downtown to address this persistent issue. Additional personnel from other units were brought in to address the large increase in homeless persons utilizing the COVID shelter opened at the convention center. Downtown bikes conducted an extra patrol detail for the revitalization area on Magnolia.

This has evolved into small daily meetings taking place during lunch, effectively developing another productive time slot that was not as apparent before COVID. CID is quickly working to replace personnel lost to promotion.

Roll calls have been cancelled because of COVID restrictions.

COVID has stalled the ability of NPO's and beat officers to meet with their citizens, however, NPO's have been forced to evaluate electronic methods of information dissemination and collection. While the immediate stalling has been a temporary challenge, the end result will be NPO's that are better at communicating on many platforms, rather than just in person.

COVID has prevented us from having the police sponsored neighborhood meetings. However, the recent CCPD and meet and confer contract votes have led to individual citizens approaching officers to inquire about those issues.

COVID put a brief pause on a new B district initiative where Lt Halford and his NPO crew partnered with Councilwoman Gray and other local leaders to adopt a needy school for a mentoring program. This stemmed from a community forum with educators in the fishbowl area wanting a way to encourage children growing up there to break the cycle, and will resume as soon as FWISD allows school to continue.

Central Division has implemented a cross-training program in which patrol officers will work in the detectives office with an assigned detective for a two week training period.  The officer will be required to participate in the day to day activities of the detective.

This will help to guard the professional integrity of officers to prepare them for a long career.
