Let's take a moment to give a massive shoutout to Brockton Police Sergeant Mike Livingston! He visited a high school Life Skills class today and did an incredible job teaching the students the importance of knowing their own names, addresses, birthdates, and parents' phone numbers.
Honestly, it was a heartwarming experience! Sgt. Livingston brought so much grace, patience, and, let's be real, a tremendous sense of humor that had the students laughing while he explained how knowing this information could be life-saving in real-life situations.
Seeing so many students confidently reciting their info back to him was awesome! A big thank you to Sgt. Livingston and the BHS SPED Teachers for being so dedicated to our community and for making such a crucial lesson engaging and fun for these wonderful students. Sarge, your approach really made a difference! 💙 #BrocktonPD #CommunityPolicing #MakingADifference #SpecialNeedsEducation #SafetyFirst #LocalHeroes

This week, we celebrate National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week!
A heartfelt THANK YOU to the incredible Emergency Telephone Dispatchers (ETDs) at the Brockton Police. These unsung heroes answer approximately 100,000 calls a year, guiding people through life-threatening situations, offering calm in chaos, and ensuring help is on the way.
They are the FIRST, first responders—often working grueling shifts, undergoing intense training, and showing an unflappable dedication to their community. They are there for us on our worst days. The word "hero" hardly begins to describe their impact. THANK YOU, ETDs, for your service!

Thanks to Police Chief Brenda Perez for welcoming everyone and Sergeant Nichole Anderson and Lt. Will Schlieman for facilitating the discussion and outlining the topics we’ll cover over the next few weeks.
This academy focuses on educating the public about life as a police officer in the City of Champions.
There will also be plenty of opportunities to have fun. We promise our personnel will provide a valuable experience for all.
We look forward to the next seven weeks of learning and strengthening the bond between the BPD and the Brockton community.
