The mission of the Winooski Police Department is to provide Winooski’s residents and visitors with the highest quality of law enforcement services. We continually strive to improve the public’s perception of community safety through the eradication of criminal activity and any conditions that have a detrimental impact on public safety. The Department will accomplish this task while utilizing the Community Oriented Policing and Problem Solving (COPPS) model. Services will be provided in an efficient and effective manner, consistent with statutory authority, available budgeted resources and professional skills. The Department recognizes its members as its most valuable resource and will strive to maintain the quality of public service through committed leadership, supervisory direction, career development, succession planning, and training.
