Community Outreach Officer

The Park City Police Department has a dedicated Community Outreach Officer (COO) focused on supporting social equity priorities and community policing efforts. The COO engages with the Latino and LGBTQ+ communities, works with HOAs, provides educational presentations, and assists the School Resource Officer. A Community Technical Specialist also supports outreach, offering translation services, community education, and program support — all helping strengthen relationships with Park City’s diverse and growing community.

School Resource 

Along with general community outreach, the Park City Police Department assigns a School Resource Officer (SRO) to work closely with Park City School District staff. The SRO helps handle juvenile cases, supports school safety, and assists with procedures. Currently, the SRO serves all three schools within Park City.

Special Needs/Mental Health Outreach

  • This program aims to ensure the safety of individuals with special needs or mental illness during a crisis. A partnership between the Park City community and the Park City Police Department, it encourages proactive communication by providing first responders with vital information in advance.

    The survey gathers key details like name, birthdate, physical description, triggers, behaviors, and calming techniques. Having this information before a crisis helps responders act quickly, reduces confusion, and ensures better support on scene.

  • The program allows individuals with special needs or mental illness—or their parent or legal guardian—to submit information. A certified Crisis Intervention Officer reviews the submission and may follow up if more details are needed.

    The information is stored in a secure database accessible only to the Park City Police Department, Park City Fire District, Summit County Sheriff’s Office, and Kamas City Police. This shared access ensures coordinated response while maintaining legal safeguards. The database is reviewed annually for accuracy and updates.

Hate Crimes

  • Park City and its Police Department have zero tolerance for violence, hate, or discrimination. We believe everyone deserves safety and respect, free from threats or harm. Anyone with information about a hate crime or bias-related incident is strongly encouraged to report it immediately.

    Additionally, the department offers a voluntary survey to collect important information—such as name, physical description, triggers, behaviors, and calming techniques—for individuals with special needs or mental illness. This helps responders act quickly and appropriately during a crisis.

  • The U.S. Department of Justice can investigate and prosecute bias-motivated crimes when a victim is targeted based on race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability (18 USC §245).

    Submitted information is stored in a secure database shared only with Park City Police, Park City Fire District, Summit County Sheriff’s Office, and Kamas City Police. This ensures coordinated response and is reviewed annually for accuracy and legal protection.

  • The department is committed to preventing and preparing for potential hate crimes by:

    • Building connections with individuals and groups who may be targeted to create prevention and response networks

    • Offering victim support and community follow-up

    We value and celebrate our community’s diversity and strive to ensure all residents feel safe, welcome, and respected.
