Transparency In Policing

The men and women of the Lincoln Police Department are committed to continually improving our relationship with all members of our community. We have a proud tradition of engaging in community conversations and providing transparent explanations for our policies, procedures, and decisions. In the spirit of that transparency, collaboration, and desire for the community’s trust, we have created this Transparency page. The following sections address many questions we frequently receive about how we serve the Lincoln community, including hiring, training, use of control, community outreach, and policies. We hope this information is a positive step towards fostering an even stronger relationship with our community and we stand accountable to any questions that will help us achieve that goal.
