DOVER — The Dover Police Department, led by Chief Jonathan Delaney, recently hosted a successful “Coffee with a Cop” event on Wednesday, October 2, at the Dover Free Public Library. This national initiative is designed to foster open communication and strengthen relationships between police officers and the community.
During the event, Chief Delaney and other officers from the department engaged with residents in a relaxed and informal setting, giving attendees the opportunity to ask questions, share concerns, and get to know their local law enforcement on a personal level. The gathering aimed to break down barriers and create a space where residents could feel comfortable discussing community issues while enjoying coffee and light refreshments.
Chief Delaney emphasized the importance of these events, stating, “We aim to create an open dialogue with the residents of Dover. ‘Coffee with a Cop’ allows us to connect with the community in a casual setting, fostering trust and transparency.”
The Dover Police Department remains committed to building strong ties with the town’s diverse population, and events like this continue to serve as a cornerstone for fostering positive relationships between law enforcement and the community.
