Canton Police hold 30th "Coffee with a Cop"

The Police Department’s next Coffee with a Cop will be the 30th such event held since the agency started the important outreach program. The next event will be on Wednesday, November 22, 2017, from 9:00 - 11:00 am., at the Starbucks, located at 1353 Riverstone Pkwy, Canton, GA. This on-going outreach allows Officers and citizens to connect, engage, problem solve and build important trusting relationships which are vital to improving the quality of life for everyone in the community.

Chief Mark J. Mitchell stated, “It’s hard to believe this is our 30th Coffee with a Cop Meeting. We are honored to have met so many people who engage with us and simply come to talk to our Officers and discuss how to solve community issues together. We look forward to the next 30 events to continue our goal of building a foundation of trust with each segment of our community and diligently grow a very positive culture between our hard-working department and this great City.”

Chief Mitchell added, “I want to thank our citizens for their support and feedback over the past two and a half years since the inception of this program. We truly believe this work greatly assists us to provide better police services and also “humanizes the badge” to both adults and children. Our hope is our citizens will see we truly care about them, their quality of life, their safety and what goes on in our City.”
