While our sworn officers play a vital role in keeping our community safe, we recognize that they cannot do it alone. That’s where our community response team comes in – made up of dedicated and passionate individuals from a variety of backgrounds, our non-sworn community response is focused on building positive relationships with community members and providing support to those in need.

We join Corey Lines and Josue Parra, two members of our community response team about their experiences serving the Tempe community from working with local businesses to addressing the needs of vulnerable populations.
