Blue Envelope Program

The Frederick Police Department offers a resource to improve communication between Frederick police officers and individuals who may need additional accommodations or awareness. 

The blue envelope is aimed to provide important details that could assist the officer during an interaction.  This allows officers to quickly access key information without requiring the individual to verbally explain their needs in the moment. Individuals using the blue envelope are still expected to follow the law. 

Any community member may request a blue envelope at the front desk of the Frederick Police Department (333 Fifth Street, Frederick, CO 80530) or by phone at 720.382.5700. Once the blue envelope is complete, we recommend placing it in a vehicle's glove box to share with the Frederick police if needed. The Frederick Police Department keeps no records of those participating in this program.

Community Camera Program

Help solve crime in your area! The Community Camera Program allows residents and businesses to share the location of their video surveillance system with the Frederick Police Department. Video cameras are increasingly being used in residential and commercial properties to prevent crime and memorialize events as they occur. The Frederick Police Department Community Camera Program is a voluntary partnership with residents and businesses to help solve crimes in the Town of Frederick.

Elementary School Tours

An all-inclusive government experience for third and fourth-grade classes, the tours involve sessions with the Frederick Police Department, the Frederick-Firestone Fire Protection District, Frederick Town Hall, and a tour of the Miners Museum, Centennial Mural, Miners Memorial, and Crist Park. Contact our Communications and Engagement Manager for more information or call 720.382.5513.

FCC 711 Relay Service

The  Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has adopted the 711 dialing code for people with a hearing or speech impairment to make calls using a text telephone (TTY) or other devices to call people with or without such limitations. The Town encourages the use of this service by affected parties to contact Town Hall or the Frederick Police Department.

National Night Out

National Night Out enhances the relationship between neighbors and law enforcement while bringing back a true sense of community. Furthermore, it provides a great opportunity to bring police and neighbors together under positive circumstances. The Frederick Police Department celebrates National Night Out on the first Tuesday of every August. We thank the volunteers and event planners for inviting us to your neighborhood events. We love visiting with our residents and families yearly on National Night Out!  If you would like to get involved, please contact us at 720.382.5700.

Police Department Ride-A-Long

Designed to help our community better understand the job of a police officer, the Frederick Police Department offers ride alongs to citizens over the age of 18. To participate, please review and fill out an application. Questions? Call the Frederick Police Department at 720.382.5700.

Prescription Drug Disposal

The Police Department, in cooperation with the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE), will accept prescription and non-prescription pharmaceutical drugs in a green metal receptacle box in the police lobby. Residents can access the disposal box during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. They can dispose of most prescription and over-the-counter medications by dropping them in the box. There are some restrictions. For example, needles and liquids are not acceptable. Citizens should check with police staff at the service window if they are unsure or call the Frederick Police Department at 720.382.5700.

Santa Cops

The Carbon Valley Santa Cops program is an annual event where the Frederick and Firestone Police Departments provide gifts, warm winter clothing, and necessities to underrepresented children in the Carbon Valley area during the holiday season. Each fall, this nonprofit program is made possible by generous businesses and individuals who donate gifts and money to benefit children and families. By early December, with all the shopping complete, volunteers and local officers come together for a day of wrapping before gifts are delivered to the children.

Vacation House Watch

The Frederick Police Department can help keep your home safe by regularly checking on it while you’re on vacation. While this is not a guarantee against burglary, if there is a problem, it will be discovered sooner. The consistent police presence in your neighborhood can act as a deterrent. Fill out the Vacation House Watch form to take advantage of this program. Questions? Contact the Frederick Police Department at 720.382.5700.
