Each unincorporated Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office District has a Citizen Advisory Committee (CAC) made up of about 15 citizens. They meet monthly with the command staff of the District at the station. The meeting is open to the public, and any problem requiring special attention can be presented.

About the Program

Some of the typical issues addressed are:

  • Traffic and road problems
  • Noise
  • Graffiti
  • Illegal vendors
  • Illegal signage
  • Suspected criminal or gang activity
  • Zoning violations, such as multiple families in a single family home Requests for special surveillance

Some meetings have a guest speaker from within the Department or another County department. They also honor the Officer and/or Citizen of the Month. Recent district statistics are presented, as well as information on current situations which should be of special concern to citizens for their own safety.

Please call to reconfirm day, time and location; some do not meet in the summer months. No meetings last longer than 90 minutes.

The overall objectives of police-community relations are to identify, evaluate, and respond to the needs of both the community and the Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office, in order to establish and maintain effective avenues of communication and a positive relationship with the citizens of Miami-Dade County. Citizen participation and interaction with the police are fundamental to achieving law enforcement.

The Citizens Advisory Committee established in each of the Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office District Stations will serve in an advisory capacity to the Director and District Commanders regarding issues relevant to police-community relations.
