We are a progressive police department made up of a diverse group of nearly a thousand men and women, sworn and non-sworn, who strive to keep Omaha a safe, family-friendly city. \r\n \r\nWe believe in being responsive to our citizens and it is my belief there is a shared responsibility between the community and the police department to work together to reduce crime and improve the quality of life in our great city. Therefore, the Omaha Police Department employs a community policing philosophy coupled with a neighborhood problem solving approach. - Chief Todd Schmaderer
