Littleton Police Department: "Helping Other People"
For the last 7 years the "HOP" Program
has been presenting useful and interesting information to senior citizens
in Littleton. "HOP" was
created by the Littleton Police Citizen's Academy Alumni Association
in 1999. To date, the program has hosted presentations on identity theft,
Internet fraud, pedestrian safety, 9-1-1 medical dispatch, stroke and
heart attack prevention and treatment, tactical emergency medical support,
and Littleton Police SWAT, as well as a variety of topics aimed at educating
and assisting seniors in the Littleton area. These programs are offered
twice each month at the Buck Recreation Center and Riverpointe senior
living community.
"HOP" works in partnership with the 18th Judicial
District CASE program to provide timely information and support prosecution
of
crimes against seniors. "HOP" also provides information from
the Senior Resource Center about their Tele-A-Sure program for seniors
living alone.
Citizens with questions or requests for assistance
from "HOP" may
call 303-734-8224.
