Mental health crises need the right response. Tempe PD’s Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) training helps officers recognize mental health crises, de-escalate situations and connect people with behavioral health resources instead of the criminal justice system when appropriate.

Meet Cash! 💲🐶🐾He’s got a nose for drugs, a serious work ethic, and a name that couldn’t be more fitting. K9 Cash and his handler have helped take more than $2 million in street-value narcotics and illegal drug proceeds off the streets. Cash has found it all.

As we begin Breast Cancer Awareness Month, members of the @TempePolice will once again proudly wear pink badges and patches throughout October in support of those impacted by breast cancer. For us, the pink badge is more than a change in uniform, it’s a visible reminder of the strength of survivors, those currently fighting, the families who support them, and those we have lost. Proud to wear pink this October. 🩷 #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth #TempePD

Last night’s Community Chat with Tempe’s African American Advisory Committee was an important opportunity to listen, answer questions, and have meaningful conversations about policing, trust, and accountability. We may not always agree, but building trust requires transparency, engagement, and a willingness to listen. I’m grateful to everyone who participated and committed to keeping these conversations going.
