Welcome!

“The mission of the Redding Police Department is to work in partnership with the community to protect life and property, solve neighborhood problems, and enhance the quality of life in our city.”  We strive to ensure this community is safe and secure for the residents who live here and the many people who come here to visit.  We support our business community and work closely with the other city departments and law enforcement agencies to ensure a high quality of life for all.

This task is not easy.  Our officers are well-trained professionals who are committed to the community and the law enforcement profession.  We expect our officers to be proactive and keep crime under control by aggressive patrol tactics and by focusing on a community policing philosophy of problem solving.  We work closely with community groups to support victims of crime.   Law enforcement agencies in our community and our region have banded together to combat the influence of gangs.  It is this cooperative strategy which helps to keep our community safe.

I hope you will find this website informative.  Whether you currently live in Redding, are planning a visit, or planning to move here, we invite you to join us to become involved in our community effort to keep Redding safe for all.
