A previous announcement regarding this event, referred to it as a Community Engagement Session. The Community Engagement Sessions are hosted by the Chief’s Diversity Advisory Team and the Office of the Chief. The next Community Engagement Session will be scheduled later this spring and is separate from the Community Policing Information Session. The VPD apologizes for any confusion.
