The goal of Boise Police Department outreach efforts is to foster greater relationships with our community.
Private or small community event
Use this form to request an officer to speak at or attend your community event. You can also use this form to let us know if you are interested in hosting a Coffee with a Cop or Cone with a Cop.
Large or public community event that needs police staffing
Use this form if you are holding a special event in the City of Boise and would like law enforcement presence/ Boise Police to staff the event. Some examples include parades, festivals, marathons, etc., with an expected attendance of 1000 or more.
Shop With a Cop
The "Shop With A Cop" Program pairs a young person with an officer twice a year for a shopping excursion at a local retailer. Boise Police Officers, the Boise Police Association, and the Boise Police Victim Witness unit help fund the program and often times kids choose to purchase items to assist their parents and family. The back to school Shop with a Cop event allows underprivileged children a chance to obtain school supplies and the holiday event is centered around children involved with the Victim Witness Unit. Both events give kids a chance to interact with police in a positive environment. To make a donation to the Boise Police Association for Shop with a Cop, please fill out the form below.
“Crazy moment when one of the officers who came to VV for Student Explo Days in March turned out to be a former student of the kindergarten teacher whose class she was presenting to.”
