Milwaukee Police SAFER Program
The goal of the SAFER program is to provide members of public safety, primarily law enforcement and emergency medical services, with critical information regarding a person with special needs. When responding to a call for service or similar incident that involves a person with special needs, first responders receive information about that person through an “alert”. Information contained in the “alert” are things like specific conditions, potential triggers, and effective de-escalation techniques.
Who Do I Contact and How?
DID YOU KNOW?
If you are reporting a suspicious person or activity you should have specific information that a crime is about to be committed (i.e. prowling/casing activity). If you cannot articulate specific suspicious activity you should contact the district for extra patrol.
Community members have the right to park and occupy vehicles on the street. Having never seen the vehicle before or feeling it does not belong in the neighborhood in and of itself is not suspicious behavior. Learn more about what and how to report incidents by clicking on the button above.
The Office of Public Relations
The Office of Public Relations disseminates information externally to the public via telephone inquiries and through the use of electronic, print and social media. In addition, the office relays information interdepartmentally through memos, videos, electronic correspondence and education. Information may include, but is not limited to; high profile investigations, crime statistics, and community programs and engagement. Learn more: https://mkepdpio.org
