To “Serve and Protect” has been the mission statement for many departments and has conveyed a message most citizens understand.  While Hampshire Police also maintain a similar philosophy they have expanded their mission statement to include   “Community Responsiveness”.

Although the police have a duty to enforce the law they also have the responsibility to reduce crime and that cannot occur without direct involvement of the community.
