Citizens on Patrol
COP info on the the Fort Worth COP website is :
The position of Neighborhood Police Officer was created during the implementation of Code: Blue
in 1991. More positions were added through the Weed & Seed and Community Oriented Policing
Services (COPS) grant. A component within the Crime Control District increased the number of
Neighborhood Patrol Officers (NPOs) by 14 to provide one NPO for each major housing
community (Butler and Cavile), enhance services to emerging Citizens on Patrol groups, assist
with mobile storefronts, and provide relief for beat NPOs during periods of absence due to
vacation, training, prolonged illness or injury, etc.
NPOs work closely with the schools, churches, neighborhood associations, and Citizens on Patrol
groups. In the latter case they provide statistical information that advises participants when and
where to patrol their neighborhood and work with the citizens to develop or expand the concept
to fit the particular neighborhood.
