Purcellville Police Dept. to hold “Cocoa with a Cop”

The Purcellville Police Department will once again host the family-friendly favorite, “Cocoa with a Cop” event on Saturday, Feb. 8, from 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. at the Dunkin’ located at 1200 Wolf Rock Drive, Suite 180, Purcellville, Virginia.

This special “Cocoa with a Cop” is held once a year for children and their families as a way to meet and interact with members of the Purcellville Police Department in a friendly and casual environment.
Younger residents are invited to have a free cup of hot cocoa and meet some of their neighborhood police officers. However, community members of all ages are invited to attend as well. Come join us for hot cocoa (or coffee), and conversation with no agenda, no speeches, just a chance to ask questions, voice any concerns, and get to know the officers who serve in the community.

This program originated from the national Coffee with a Cop initiative supported by the United States Department of Justice, Office of Community Oriented Policing Services, which aims to break down barriers between police officers and the citizens they serve.

Coffee with a Cop brings law enforcement officers and community members together over coffee (or cocoa) to discuss issues and learn more about each other. The Purcellville Police Department traditionally hosts Coffee with a Cop events bi-monthly at various times and locations throughout the town of Purcellville.
