Office of Community Liaison

The Office of Community Liaison (OCL) is comprised of professional staff that works closely with our sworn personnel to bridge the gap between the department and the community we serve.

The OCL neighborhood liaisons are each assigned to specific areas of Austin in order to provide community outreach, engagement, awareness, education, and resources. Neighborhood liaisons host safety fairs, Coffee with a Cop, and Community Connect meetings where the community can interact positively with officers and other public safety representatives. They are available to assist with neighborhood watch trainings and other crime prevention resources. OCL looks forward to making connections by building long-lasting relationships in our community.
