The Crime Prevention Unit believes in more than just sturdy locks, good lighting, and personal awareness. We believe in working together with the community to make Modesto a safe and pleasant place to live. The Crime Prevention Unit works closely with schools, civic groups, businesses and other City Departments.
The Stanislaus Area Crime Stoppers has been serving the community since 2005, and assisting local Law Enforcement in the apprehension of wanted persons in Stanislaus County.
Sometimes, an identity thief can strike even if you've been very careful about keeping your personal information to yourself. If you suspect that your personal information has been hijacked and misappropriated to commit fraud or theft, take action immediately! Keep a record of your conversations and correspondence.
With a free Vacation House Check, you can request for trained Modesto Police Department Volunteers in Police Service (VIPS) to periodically patrol your residence looking for anything out of the ordinary. Checks are limited to volunteer availability and is not guaranteed.
