What is Police Pages?

Police Pages provides officers with engaging children’s books that teach character-building lessons and foster positive relationships between police and youth.

Why It Works

  • Encourages positive police-youth interactions
  • Supports community outreach goals
  • Reinforces character-building lessons in schools
  • Strengthens officer presence beyond enforcement roles

Customized for Your Department

To enhance department branding and community engagement, Police Pages provides a unique branding customization at no additional charge, allowing each department to personalize the books with their logo on the front and back covers. This feature ensures that when officers read to students in their community, the books are a direct representation of their department’s commitment to education, trust, and positive youth development.

Why Your Department Should Use These Books

By integrating Police Pages into your community engagement endeavors, officers will create a welcoming, educational experience for the youth in your community. Here’s four ways these books can strengthen youth relationships:

  • Encourage Trust and Positive Interactions – Seeing police officers in schools, reading engaging stories, and interacting with students in a friendly setting builds trust from an early age.
  • Promoting Meaningful Conversations – Each book provides a starting point for discussions about values like honesty, perseverance, and empathy—encouraging children to reflect on their own behaviors.
  • Making Officers More Approachable – Many children only see police officers in serious situations. By reading with students, your officers will show their human side, reinforcing their role as protectors and mentors.
  • Strengthening Literacy and Learning – Police Pages isn’t just about fostering relationships—it’s also about promoting literacy. Officers can inspire a love for reading while reinforcing positive character development.

  • School visits(reading sessions, classroom discussions)
  • Community events(library readings, youth center programs)

The Core Lessons

Based on Dr. Marilyn Price-Mitchell’s Compass Advantage framework, these books highlight essential character-building traits such as Empathy, Creativity, Curiosity, Resourcefulness, Sociability, Integrity, Resilience, and Self-Awareness, helping children build valuable life skills while seeing police officers as positive role models in their communities.

Each book features an engaging, age-appropriate story that showcases how law enforcement embodies these core values in their everyday work. Whether it’s an officer demonstrating resilience after a community crisis, a K9 team using resourcefulness to solve a case, or a detective showing creativity in an investigation, every story reinforces a meaningful connection between police work and personal growth.
