honor, serve, protect - Village of Morton Grove

Community Awareness
“...as a community, we do not tolerate crime;
we are educated in crime prevention methods;
and, we report suspicious activity and crime
to our police.”
COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP
All members of the Police Department are responsible for the suggestions and concerns of citizens,
representatives of schools, religious institutions, businesses, and other government or community
organizations. The continuous exchange of information is critical to the Mission of the Police
Department. This process provides us with an opportunity for rapid response to community needs.
Citizen concerns should be directed to the Police Department immediately to allow us time to
investigate events early while they may still be minor in nature. This important process also helps the
community impart concerns to their Police Department that might otherwise not get reported.
Compliments are also welcome!

CRIME PREVENTION
Our Community Awareness Network brings together many community functions to help
prevent and deter criminal activity and to create a spirit of safety and security within the
Village. Communication between the community and the Police Department is vital to
reduce the opportunities for criminals to strike. The Police Department offers Security
Surveys for residences and businesses; a School Liaison program; a Police Department
tour program; speakers for a variety of subjects; provides engravers and timers upon
request; Safety Seat inspection; Communities against Terrorism program; and offers
many additional programs.
