| Volunteers in Police Services |
The Grand Junction Police Department couldn't provide all the services it provides to both its internal and external customers without the help of our generous volunteers. Currently, there are 38 volunteers that dedicate countless hours, working day in and day out in a variety of areas at the Police Department from the Crime Lab to Records, from moving radar trailers and squad cars to being a welcome presence at the Mesa Mall substation's Community Advocacy Program (CAP). In addition, volunteers provide victim services in our Victim Advocacy Program. Click here to learn more about our Victim Advocacy Program.
The Grand Junction Police Department would love to have you join the ranks of Volunteers in Police Services. If you are interested in finding out more, please call (970) 244-3580.

Neighborhood Speed Watch Program (NSWP)
| |
This program is a partnership between neighborhood
residents, the City of Grand Junction Division of Transportation
Engineering and the Grand Junction Police Department. Its purpose
is to promote traffic safety throughout the community by educating
drivers to slow down and exercise caution on neighborhood streets.
With the use of radar equipment and recorded vehicle information,
drivers will be notified by mail that they were observed at
at specific location exceeding the legal speed limit. Letters
will express the concern of local residents about this problem
and encourage motorists to drive in a safe manner. For more
information on the NSWP please contact the Grand Junction Police
Department's Community Advocacy Program at (970) 244-3630. |
Seniors and Lawmen Together (SALT)

volunteers, known as the SALT Council, handle a variety of case-sensitive data inputs into the Law Records Management System. This data includes pawn slip ticket input, queries, Court Outstanding Warrants and other data entry as needed. The SALT Council also coordinates several programs to help reduce criminal victimization of older citizens, including the Handicap Parking Patrol, Honesty Cards, the Emergency Response Light program, distribution of radar trailers, the Bikes for Kids programs at local elementary schools, and more. |
