DEPARTMENT OVERVIEW
Tulare Police Department is a progressive and innovative department that works collaboratively with community members and groups, business leaders, and various public and private agencies, to address crime, the underlying causes of crime, and the overall quality of life in our community.
The department is comprised of three very distinct divisions that work collectively for the safety of the community and our many visitors throughout the year. The divisions of Patrol, Investigations, and Administration are comprised of individual units that are trained and equipped to handle calls for service and investigations ranging from minor to the very complex.
We engage in various community policing strategies designed to build trust within the community and the department through open communication, empowerment, and partnerships with internal and external stakeholders so that together, we can solve community problems in creative ways.
Our officers adopt multiple roles, including law enforcer, public servant, and social worker in the performance of their duties. Balancing these many, often conflicting roles and knowing which role is appropriate at any given moment, requires keen decision-making, judgment and adaptability.

We actively seek to attract, develop, and retain a talented and dedicated workforce where people of diverse races, genders, religions, cultures, political affiliations, and lifestyles thrive.
