Community Oriented Policing and Problem Solving (COPPS)
The Ripon Police Department will be hosting a series of quarterly community meetings this year, to discuss concerns or issues that may be occurring within Ripon neighborhoods. The goal is to improve communications between residents and the officers who patrol our neighborhoods. Officers will also be providing information and safety tips that may be unique to your specific area.
