2024 May CAPS Beat Meetings
Be part of the solution!
We encourage all residents to participate in their CAPS Beat Meeting. This is an opportunity for you to engage with your Beat Officers.
What is CAPS? CAPS stands for Chicago Alternative Policing Strategy. CAPS is a partnership between police and community that is the foundation of community policing. CAPS uses Beats to develop relationships between the community and the police.
CAPS meetings offer city residents an opportunity to address crime and safety issues directly with the beat officers who patrol their neighborhood, as well as to provide ongoing feedback, which help the police to monitor crime issues. The beat meeting is a chance to meet your neighbors and come up with strategies that affect the community.

Congratulations Anti-Cruelty celebrating 125 years!
Congratulations to Anti-Cruelty celebrating their 125th birthday! In celebration on March 7th, they unveiled their shortened name and introduced a new logo to go along with it. As they journeyed to their 125th year, they realized they had evolved as an organization and were no longer a society, but a movement. In addition to unveiling their new name and logo, today 42 Ward Alderman Brendan Reilly joined Anti-Cruelty President & CEO Tracy Elliott in the official naming of the East side of Grand Avenue between Wells and LaSalle as Honorary Rose Fay Thomas Way (Anti-Cruelty Founder). Thanks to generous donors, they have saved over 350,000 lives in the last 125 years. Find out more and donate at https://anticruelty.org
