I want to personally thank the families and friends who took

the time to attend our community outreach events this past year. As we continue our outreach programs throughout the summer, we invite you to stay active and participate. Our department events are not only a great way to stay informed about public safety in Orland Park, but also to foster meaningful connections with our officers. It’s important to the department to host events like these in the community. Keeping Orland Park informed helps keep us all safe. I invite you to attend our “Cookout with Cops” events and to keep an eye out for more events promoted throughout the summer.

Dear Orland Park Seniors,

The safety of residents and guests in Orland Park is the first and foremost priority for the Orland Park Police Department. We are proud of the fact that the Village of Orland Park has seen Index Crimes continue to drop below our 25-year average and crime in Orland Park has continued to decrease. With that being said, we must remain actively aware of those who seek to commit crimes in the Orland Park area. We ask that you, as residents of the community, do your part to let us know if you see anything that may seem odd or gives you concern.
