INTRODUCTION
PURPOSE OF THE PLAN The purpose of the Fort Worth Police Department (FWPD) FY2023 - FY2027 Strategic Plan is to identify departmental and community priorities for the next five years. This plan is an internal operational document and establishes where the Fort Worth Police Department wants to go, how it will get there, and measures whether or not the department is successful in reaching its goals. Developing a strategic plan every five years provides a valuable tool for the department, the citywide organization, and the community.
PLANNING PROCESS AND STRATEGIC PLAN ADVISORY COMMITTEE In February 2022, Police Chief Neil Noakes assembled a diverse Strategic Plan Advisory Committee (SPAC) to oversee the strategic planning process. The committee was comprised of several community stakeholders representing neighborhoods, businesses, faith - based, and civic organizations as well as FWPD employees and representatives from other City of Fort Worth departments. The SPAC held its first meeting in March 2022 and met six times through early May 2022. The committee meetings were led by an external facilitator and resulted in the creation of five Strategic Priorities and associated objectives that form the basis of the plan. The sixth Strategic Priority, Infrastructure, as well as action items for each objective, were added by the Fort Worth Police Department. The committee was also instrumental in creating updated vision and mission statements for the department. Each committee member ’ s thoughtful input and time devoted to developing a new strategic plan was key to a successful planning process.
See Appendix B for details about the Strategic Plan Advisory Committee input exercises.
