Community Liasion Program 

A Program to increase effective communication within our various communities and to provide accurate and timely information on developing issues.  The program is made up of patrol officers, and a Community Services Officer.  Some have special language skills to reach out to our non-English speaking residents.  The officers are available for contact during their regular work schedule as listed below.   At times the officers will be asked to initiate contacts with community members to share valuable information.

Law Enforcement Chaplains
Law enforcement chaplains provide a much-needed resource for officers when dealing with critical incidents, and for citizens in time of need.

The West Sacramento Police Department Volunteers in Policing can assist with obtaining a dog license for your pet. Call 617-4937 to schedule an appointment to purchase the license.
