What We Do
CSPD Community Service Officers (CSOs) assist police officers by responding to and investigating lower priority calls for service. As a result of the CSO Unit taking over these calls for service, police officers are able to respond to higher priority calls in a timely manner. CSOs do not respond to any calls for service where the incident is in-progress or the suspect is still on scene. Applications are currently closed. To be notified of openings, please complete a job interest card.
