History of VIPS

The Paradise Police Department Volunteers in Police Service (VIPS) program was established in 1996.  VIPS are a team of trained citizen volunteers who assist the police department with non-enforcement duties, in patrol, traffic control, administrative work , and crime scene security.  Their assistance allows officers to focus on crime reduction and providing a safe community for our citizens.  The VIPS are an important part of our organization and are proven to be a valuable asset to our front line personnel and our community.
