COP House Playbook
A COP House is a physical home located in a residential area which is staffed by police officers and other service providers. It is open to the public during strategically decided hours. Officers who staff the COP House work with intention to build relationships with residents and prioritize the needs of the neighborhood. Residents can frequent the house to interact with officers and access services provided by partner agencies and organizations. The Racine Police Department is a pioneer in creating the neighborhood COP (Community Oriented Policing) Houses. Under this neighborhood "place-based" public safety model, traditional police public safety efforts are supplemented by several programs, services, initiatives, all of which are designed to promote community engagement in reducing crime and improving the quality of life for area residents.
