Police Auxiliaries are a volunteer group created to augment the regular police force in times of emergency and to serve as approved by the Chief of Police. Upon acceptance to the program new auxiliaries will receive training multiple areas such as, crowd control, self defense, state laws, traffic control, city ordinances, first aid, etc. After completing the initial training, new auxiliaries may be assigned to assist with traffic control at special events, assist with providing security at a neighborhood festival, or working with a District Community Liaison Officer organizing block watch meetings.
