The Rock Hill Police Department (RHPD) launched a new Community Outreach Program in 2025 aimed at strengthening ties between law enforcement and local residents. This program emphasizes community-based policing, focusing on building trust, communication, and collaboration with the public. Key components of the initiative include:
Hosting regular community roundtables and forums for open dialogue on concerns, safety, and crime prevention.
Offering mobile apps and digital platforms to enhance engagement and provide real-time information to residents.
Expanding officer presence at community events, schools, and neighborhood gatherings to foster positive relationships outside of enforcement actions.
Providing educational programs on safety, crime awareness, and civic responsibilities.
Encouraging volunteer opportunities and partnerships with local organizations to address social issues collaboratively.
The program embodies a holistic approach to policing, prioritizing mutual respect and proactive problem-solving to create a safer, more connected Rock Hill community.
