To achieve our goals of excellence in law enforcement we have implemented several new strategies. We developed and implemented a Strategic Plan that serves as a roadmap for the Police Department in its continuous effort to improve service to the residents of Hayward and to achieve the highest standards of policing. Our Strategic Plan is a living document that will help guide the thinking and actions of the Hayward Police Department in our effort to provide quality law enforcement services. |
The manner in which we deliver services is anchored by our belief in Community Policing, our focus on service delivery at the neighborhood level, and our community partnerships. The Hayward Police Department has implemented a District Policing model that emphasizes a closer working relationship with our residential neighborhoods and our business community. Our overall objective is to improve the quality of life for all of our residents, business owners and visitors.
In 2008 the police department began the process to become nationally accredited through the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA). On March 26, 2011 we achieved our goal and the Hayward Police Department was awarded Advanced Law Enforcement Accreditation at the CALEA conference in Bethesda, Maryland. It is our desire to be considered among the best and most professional law enforcement agencies in the nation and CALEA accreditation is a process that helps us achieve this objective. We look forward to maintaining accredited status and being held accountable to the highest standards in law enforcement.
The City of Hayward deserves the very best in law enforcement and as the Chief of Police it is my responsibility to make that happen. Rest assured we are committed to meeting and maintaining the highest standards of police professionalism, and we understand the value of providing superior customer service to those who live, work and visit the City of Hayward (The Heart of the Bay).
