The Commonwealth of Dominica Police Force is inviting residents of Pointe Michel to a community policing meeting set for Monday, October 5, 2026, at the Pointe Michel Community Centre. The meeting is scheduled to begin at 6:00 PM.
The session forms part of the Force's ongoing community policing programme, which seeks to strengthen the relationship between officers and the communities they serve. Community policing meetings give residents a direct opportunity to raise concerns about safety and crime in their area, and to hear from police about current priorities and initiatives.
Pointe Michel, a village on the south-western coast just outside Roseau, is the latest community to be included in the programme. Similar meetings have been held in other parts of the island as the Force works to build trust and improve communication with the public.
Residents are encouraged to attend and to participate actively in the discussion. The meeting is open to all members of the Pointe Michel community. Those who attend will be able to speak directly with police officers and to share their views on how policing can be improved in their village.
The Force has not released a detailed agenda for the meeting, but community policing sessions typically cover local crime trends, crime prevention advice, and ways in which residents can work with the police to keep their neighbourhoods safe. They also provide a forum for residents to report ongoing concerns and to ask questions about police operations.
Community policing is a key part of the Force's strategy to reduce crime and to ensure that policing is responsive to the needs of all communities. By holding meetings in villages and towns across the island, the Force aims to make itself more accessible and to encourage greater public cooperation.
Residents of Pointe Michel and surrounding areas are urged to attend the meeting on Monday, October 5, 2026, at 6:00 PM at the Pointe Michel Community Centre. For further information, residents may contact their local police station.
