Community Policing

Northeast Community Fair The El Paso Police Department’s Northeast Regional Command Center hosted a community fair at Cohen Stadium in August 2017. The fair offered free medical screening, entertainment and vendors. The fair is a community-building campaign that promotes police and emergency services personnel partnerships with communities and promotes neighborhood camaraderie to make neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live.

Citizen Recognition

In an effort to strengthen community involvement, the El Paso Police Department honored an exceptional child in December. The CAC section was advised of a young girl named Kaylee Castillo, who had been collecting teddy bears for Christmas. Her objective was to provide teddy bears to disadvantage children. Kaylee raised money and collected over 200 teddy bears to give to the Child Crisis Center, Children’s Advocacy Center and local hospitals. On December 21, 2017 the CAC section honored this young child and surprised her with several gifts for Christmas. Attendees included Commander Pelletier and Chief Maloney.
