community events

HILLSDALE—On June4th 2023, officers from the Hillsdale Police Department and community members will come together in an informal, neutral space to discuss community issues, build relationships, and drink coffee.

All community members are invited to attend. The event begins at 10 a.m. on June 4th 2023. Please contact Dsg. Adam Hampton with questions: (201)664-4200 or ahampton@hillsdalepolice.com

Coffee with a Cop provides a unique opportunity for community members to ask questions and learn more about the department’s work in Hillsdale neighborhoods.

The majority of contacts law enforcement has with the public happen during emergencies, or emotional situations. Those situations are not always the most effective times for relationship building with the community and some community members may feel that officers are unapproachable on the street. Coffee with a Cop breaks down barriers and allows for a relaxed, one-on-one interaction.

Coffee with a Cop is a national initiative supported by The United States Department of Justice, Office of Community Oriented Policing Services. Similar events are being held across the county, as local police departments strive to make lasting connections with the communities they serve.

The program aims to advance the practice of community policing through improving relationships between police officers and community members one cup of coffee at a time.  

Please come join us on Sunday, October 8th for our annual open house in cooperation with the Hillsdale Fire Volunteer Department and Hillsdale Volunteer Ambulance.

Our doors open at 11am with refreshments served.

Chief Francaviglia and the Hillsdale Police Department are proud to announce that we will be hosting our 3rd annual National Night Out on August 1st 2017 at the Memorial Field in Hillsdale from 6pm-9pm. 
National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live. We look forward to seeing everyone again this year. Bring the whole family out for food, drinks, demonstrations, games and a movie under the stars.
