The Bismarck Police Department is rolling out enhanced crime prevention programs in 2025, empowering residents with tools to stay safe—both online and in their neighborhoods.
From security surveys for homes and businesses to workshops on internet safety, fraud awareness, and theft prevention, the department is doubling down on education. With crime trends evolving—especially digital scams—officers are aiming to give Bismarck residents the knowledge to protect themselves before incidents occur.
The program isn’t just about enforcement—it’s about partnership. Bismarck residents can schedule free home or business security surveys, request group presentations, and take part in seasonal awareness events. Local schools and senior centers are already signing up for 2025 workshops on online safety, reflecting the city’s commitment to making prevention accessible to all ages.
"We want to give residents the confidence to safeguard their families and businesses. Prevention starts with awareness—and that’s where we’re focused."
"It’s reassuring to know the police aren’t just responding to crime, but helping us prevent it. The home survey gave me easy steps I never thought about."
As Bismarck grows, the police department is adapting crime prevention to meet modern challenges. From porch thefts to online scams, residents are being asked to take an active role in shaping a safer community. These programs aren’t just about security—they’re about trust and collaboration.
