Police Department Program Description

The purpose of the Jerome Police Department is to provide a variety of police services to the citizens and visitors of the Jerome community. These services include keeping the peace, law enforcement, criminal investigation, traffic safety, and other services that promote public safety. The Police Department strives for excellence through solid leadership and effective selection, training, and retention of quality police employees. Members of the Police Department are encouraged not only to respond to crime but also to work with the community and other entities to reduce the effects and fear of crime.

It is the intent of the Police Department to work with others to ensure the City of Jerome is a place where we ourselves, as members of the community, wish to live and raise our families.
