Every so often, the Brockton Police Community Engagement Unit takes time to connect with residents over a cup of coffee—and today was one of those great days!
Officer Derek Salamone and Police Chief Brenda Perez joined community members at the Brockton Council on Aging for a meaningful morning of discussion. It was a wonderful chance for residents to ask questions, share their thoughts, and engage directly with our department.
These informal gatherings help us build trust, foster familiarity, and strengthen communication—all essential to solving problems together.
A big thank you to everyone who joined us and to Council on Aging Director Janice Fitzgerald for the kind invitation.

In recognition of National Construction Safety Week, the Brockton Police Department visited the site of the new public safety building to connect with workers and support jobsite safety efforts.
At the invitation of Suffolk Construction, officers held hands-on demonstrations on the proper use of tourniquets and Narcan—critical tools in emergency response.
Suffolk's Safety Director, Joe Jenkins, highlighted the realities of the construction industry, noting its exposure to cutting injuries as well as mental health and substance use challenges.
Both Director Jenkins and Police Chief Brenda Perez praised the strong collaboration between Suffolk and the Brockton Police Department, emphasizing the value of public-private partnerships in keeping workers safe.
Special thanks to Sgt. Jason Ford, Det. Matt Murphy and Lt. Will Schlieman for leading this week's important safety demonstrations.

We are deeply grateful to the staff at West Middle School for once again including the Brockton Police Department in the Women Empowering Students of Tomorrow event—a truly uplifting morning dedicated to inspiring young female students.
This powerful initiative continues to grow, and we’re honored to be part of it. The energy and care the staff put into organizing this event speaks volumes about their commitment to shaping confident, empowered young women.
This year, we were proud to present each student with a commemorative coin—symbolizing our service, support, and belief in their potential. Representing the department were Officers Diana DeAndrade, Caitlin Elnitsky, Sergeant Nichole Anderson, and BPD Administrator Nicole Casarez, who connected with students and handed out meaningful gifts. Chief Brenda Perez shared personal experiences and words of encouragement.
Thank you again to the educators, organizers, and students at West Middle School for welcoming us into this impactful celebration. You continue to lead by example and inspire us all.
