Over 6K folk benefit from QCPD’s community outreach programs
THE Quezon City Police District (QCPD) said 6,179 beneficiaries benefitted from the weeklong Community Outreach Program it conducted across various barangays in Quezon City.
Led by P/Col. Geoffrey Fernandez, Chief of the District Community Affairs and Development Division (DCADD), the initiative aimed to foster stronger ties between law enforcement and the community.
From June 7-13, 2024, the QCPD, alongside the District Mobile Force Battalion (DMFB), Police Stations 1 to 16 and Advocacy Support Groups, conducted 66 Community Outreach Programs.
These events covered a range of activities, including informative lectures, distribution of essential items, livelihood programs, environmental initiatives, and dialogues.
The program included lectures on Community Anti-Terrorism Awareness (CATA), Buhay Ingatan, Droga’y Ayawan (BIDA) Program/Drug Awareness, Crime Prevention Safety Tips and various laws addressing social issues.
Additionally, practical initiatives like livelihood programs, tree planting and clean-up drives were organized to enhance community well-being and environmental sustainability.
P/BGen. Redrico Maranan, QCPD director, said: “Our goal is not just to enforce the law but to be a partner in community development.
By addressing both the safety and welfare needs of our citizens, we are working towards a more resilient and united Quezon City.
