    Thank you to everyone who took the Impressions of the Broomfield Police survey! In total, 266 community members shared their thoughts and experiences in this online format between Dec. 8, 2023 and March 15, 2024.


    Information received from the survey will help the BPD prepare for community listening sessions in summer 2024. It will inform topics of community interest to discuss at the listening sessions and help the BPD identify segments of the community they’d have yet to hear from. Survey data, in addition to stories and experiences shared at the listening sessions, will help the BPD understand what they’re doing well and how they can best engage with the community. Stay tuned Listening Sessions will be happening this summer!

    In May 2023, the BPD led two listening session workshops with City and County of Broomfield (CCOB) employees. During the listening sessions, the 35 attendees participated in two hands-on and discussion-based activities. They were asked to consider topics such as concerns they have when interacting with the Broomfield Police Department, important functions of the BPD and things that would be helpful to change at the BPD.

    Themes the BPD heard from CCOB saff during these sessions included:

    • A desire for increased engagement
    • More education about what the police do and why
    • Relationship building
    • Increase positive interactions
    • Continue to address social issues such as mental health, homelessness and drug use

    The BPD will consider staff feedback along with community feedback as they seek to understand how to best engage with the community. Thank you to all CCOB employees who participated!
