Parsons McDonald’s and police partner for national Coffee with a Cop event

Parsons McDonald’s and police partner for national Coffee with a Cop event

At 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM, on Wednesday, October 2, 2024, the Parsons McDonald’s and the Parsons Police Department will be joining communities nationwide to host National Coffee with a Cop, an event aimed at strengthening the relationship between law enforcement and the public. The event will take place from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. at the Parsons McDonald’s, offering residents the chance to meet local officers in an informal, friendly setting.

Coffee with a Cop is part of a national initiative to break down barriers between police officers and the citizens they serve. The program, which began in 2011 in California, has grown to be a nationwide effort, allowing people to engage in meaningful conversation with law enforcement over a cup of coffee.

Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions, share concerns, or simply chat about life in the community without the usual formalities of police stations or emergency situations. Events like these can foster trust and transparency, two essential elements of public safety.

There are many reasons to attend this year’s event. Whether you have specific community concerns, want to meet the officers who patrol your neighborhood, or are simply interested in learning more about police work, this is a relaxed environment to engage. Plus, for those who value building a stronger community, it’s a perfect opportunity to bridge gaps, understand different perspectives, and work together to create a safer, more connected Parsons.

Make sure to mark your calendars and take part in this community-focused event—it’s more than just coffee, it’s about building relationships that matter!
