Welcome to the Desert Hot Springs Police Department web page. I’m glad you’ve taken the time to visit our web site and appreciate your patience as we reconstruct pages and make your tour more user friendly.
I’m honored to have been selected to represent this agency and our Community as the Chief of Police. Our agency greatly appreciates the amazing support of our diverse Community and we pledge to continue building a department that effectively fights crime, helps eliminate neighborhood blight, and provides exceptional service.
Our dedicated staff consists of thirty nine sworn, professional staff, and volunteers. ‘The Spa City’ is our motto and for us that represents Safety, Professionalism, and Accountability (SPA). We are committed to ensuring those are our priorities in all we do for each other and the Community we are privileged to serve.
In support of the department’s Community Policing Initiative, our officers are encouraged to spend time getting to know residents and merchants in an effort to develop relationships and to cooperatively build a safer community. Whether answering calls, greeting people at our station, or completing duties in the field, we are committed to professional and accountable partnerships with the community and to collaborative problem solving for the benefit of all.
Please feel free to explore our website for information regarding crime prevention, crime-free multi housing training, our Community Police Academy, and so much more.
Thank you for your interest in our agency and our Community. Should you wish to contact me directly, please call (760) 329-6411, Ext. 328 or send email to ksinger@dhspd.com. Have a safe day!
Sincerely,
Kate Singer, Chief of Police
