According to a post on the department’s Facebook:

Coffee with a Cop will allow Police and community members to come together in an informal, neutral space to sit down with a mix of officers, detectives, sergeants, lieutenants and the Chief to ask questions, discuss happenings in the area, voice concerns, and get to know the officers who patrol their areas. This is a great way to strengthen police-community partnership and build friendships throughout the community.

Coffee with a Cop is just another way to allow our residents to make Falls Township a better place to live.

The “Coffee with a Cop” program encouraged by the U.S. Department of Justice. Nearby, Northampton Township police take part in the initiative meant to build relations between the community and those that protect them.

“‘Coffee with a Cop’ is currently strengthening community and police relations and enhancing officer safety in over 250 cities, towns and campuses in 41 states,” according to the federal justice department website.
