• Job fairs at local schools
• Booths at the Farmers Market
• “Walk Safe” programs at Martin Luther King Middle School
• Ribbon cuttings for new businesses
• Annual events such as parades, Fourth of July celebrations, and K-9 demonstrations

If you’d like to have the Crime Prevention team attend your event, email us at pdinfo@madera.gov.

We welcome you to stop by the station to pick up materials or talk with our team about crime prevention in your neighborhood.
