Community Relations

The Community Relations Unit serves the community by providing services to the entire county that reduce crime and improve the quality of life through mutually beneficial partnerships with all the county’s communities. Increased safety through awareness is the primary function of the unit. We offer safety programs, presentations, resources, public events and more. Our goal, as a community liaison, is to initiate an open dialogue with all members of the community. We are dedicated to educate the public on how to safely take steps that improve security of neighborhoods and businesses by appearing less desirable to criminals making them more resistant to crime and ultimately enhance the safety, security, and quality of life for the residents and visitors of Kern County.

Community Relations Office Hours: Tuesday through Friday, 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM
