HPD: Citywide Positive Interaction Program Meeting /
Please join HPD on May 9th at 7 p.m. for the Citywide Positive Interaction Program Meeting and meet members of HPD's Mounted Patrol.
Focusing on the three “C’s” – Crime, Community and Crowds the unit enhances the livability and viability of our great City.
On any given day you may see members of the Mounted Patrol crushing crime, keeping the peace at protests, interacting with the community during demonstrations, searching for missing persons, and even riding in a parade.
The Citywide PIP meetings are held at the Houston Police Officers Union, 1602 State Street.
For more information, please contact Senior Police Officer James Sobota at 713-308-9079 or james.sobota@houstonpolice.org.
***The Citywide PIP meeting is open to everyone to come and see what the Positive Interaction Program is about; although, we encourage you to join your divisional PIP groups which can be found here http://www.houstontx.gov/police/pip/divisional.htm
