The dedicated men and women of the Tulare Police Department are well trained, thoughtful, and committed to providing professional law enforcement services to the citizens and visitors of this outstanding community. We take pride in the fact that our department is as culturally diverse as our community.

We are continuously working to find new and innovative ways in which to engage and build lasting partnerships with the community.  We all have a responsibility for the safety of our community, and without the help and support of our citizens effective policing is not possible.

If the information you seek is not found on this page please give us a call, I look forward to seeing you at one of the many community events throughout the year.
