Community Services Section
The goal of the Community Services Section of the West Valley City Police Department is to work with the citizens of West Valley City in addressing crime problems in their neighborhoods. The police department needs the participation of every citizen to be successful in reducing crime.
During the early part of the 20th century officers were able to patrol their areas on foot, which allowed the citizens and the officers to get to know each other on a more personal level. This encouraged open communication between the police department and the citizens and therefore crime problems within the community were identified and addressed quickly.
The Community Services Section is committed to renewing this type of partnership with our citizens.

It Takes A Team
The West Valley City Police Department encourages each of you to get to know your Community Services Officer and develop a partnership with them. Together we can reduce crime in your neighborhood and continue to make West Valley a safe place to live, work, and visit.
Knowledge is an important key to fighting crime. Sometimes you do not have a clear picture of what is occurring in your neighborhood. When you know what is happening in your neighborhood you know what to look for and report. Visiting websites like Raids Online is one way to help increase your knowledge of what crimes have been occurring in your neighborhood.
Neighborhood Watch Groups
Neighborhood Watch Groups are also a key to success in reducing crime throughout the city. When neighbors get to know each other and work towards a common goal such as neighborhood safety it brings more than crime reduction. It builds a sense of community which has benefits for crime reduction and far beyond.
To start a neighborhood watch group in your area contact the city’s Neighborhood Watch Coordinator Jeni Harward at 801-965-7091 or Email.
