our goal has been to
find innovative ways to
maintain relationships
with the members of
our community during
a time when everyone’s
health and safety are
most important.
Through social media and new and existing
community partnerships, we have been successful
with outreach to our residents and business owners
regarding important events and information happening
at the Jupiter Police Department and around the Town
of Jupiter.
In July, in partnership with Furry Friends, we started
our new Facebook “Adopt with a Cop” program, which
features a sweet dog or cat up for adoption and looking
for a forever family.
In August, through social media, we sadly said
goodbye and well wishes to a couple of officers due to
retirements, including one of our canines, K-9 Dylan.
In September, we hosted our first virtual Facebook
Live “Coffee with a Cop.” This was a great opportunity
for our followers to make comments or ask questions
about events happening within our town as well as
across our country.
Lastly, over the past few months, we have continued
to receive many kind words of support and donations
from our wonderful and generous community. This
has meant so much to our officers and support staff.
Stay healthy and stay safe, and we look forward to
seeing you again at one of our events in the near future.
Please continue to visit us on our website at www.

Sincerely,
Daniel J. Kerr, Chief of Police
