Henderson Police Host Talk Shop with Cops

Henderson residents are invited to meet the people behind the badge and learn more about what police officers are doing to help keep their community safe during the Henderson Police Department’s Talk Shop with Cops.

Talk Shop with Cops will take place Thursday, Feb. 9 from 7 am- 9 am at The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf on 10604 S. Eastern Ave. (South Eastern Avenue and West Horizon Ridge Parkway)

The format for Talk Shop with Cops has been modified from a formal presentation to a more casual context in which officers meet and speak one-on-one with the residents they protect and serve. The updated format allows community members to ask questions, voice concerns and get to know the officers that work in their neighborhood, while in a relaxed setting.

“Building a partnership with our residents to identify and solve neighborhood problems is the foundation of effective community policing,” Henderson Police Chief Patrick Moers said. “Holding events at neighborhood hangouts will help encourage that collaboration between community members and police officers.”

Talk Shop with Cops will be hosted at different times and locations throughout Henderson during the year.
