    Accomplishments

    The HOPE unit was created at the end of 2020. HOPE Stands for Homeless Outreach Programs and Enforcement. The unit consists of 4 officers, a corporal and a sergeant. The unit is jointly supervised by Lieutenant Ladd and Lieutenant Demore.  HOPE was integral for a variety of responses this month, particularly as it related to expanded homeless resource delivery due to expanded shelters.
