• Crime prevention is a cooperative effort between homeowners and the WTPD. In furtherance of the concept of community partnerships, the WTPD is requesting residents, businesses, and organizations that have security cameras in place on their property to complete a short registration form. The registration does NOT give the WTPD access to your camera system but allows the agency to maintain a database of active cameras in the event a crime occurs in the area. For example, if a burglary occurs down the street from your property, the WTPD would know your camera may have captured an image of a vehicle or suspect that could connect investigators to the suspects involved in the burglary. A detective would phone you and ask to review the footage. Participating properties will receive a decal with the official Washington Township Police Safe Cam logo to display as an additional deterrent to crime. Click here for ore details.  |

• The Washington Township Special Needs Registry is a voluntary service open to all citizens. The registry was created to help police officers and other emergency service personnel to better assist residents with special needs in the event of an emergency by providing first responders with vital information regarding a registrant’s disability, emergency contact information, a physical description, and current photograph of the registrant.
The Registry gives police quick access in an emergency to critical information about a person who is registered. Individuals will also get a blue window decal, as well as a blue envelope for their vehicle. These items let the police know that the occupants have a physical or mental condition that may not be apparent to the officer on scene.
The goal of the Washington Township Special Needs Registry is to ensure all residents who have Special Needs are able to get the help and support they need in a time of emergency or during interaction with Law Enforcement, Fire or EMS personnel.

• The Washington Police Department is dedicated to delivering pro-active and up to date law enforcement services to the community through an established partnership with its citizens.
