Crime Stoppers appreciates the work of all of its board members. These community volunteers are responsible for approving rewards paid to the tipsters who submit anonymous information that lead to the apprehension of suspects and/or solves crime. In addition to this important task, Board members also assist in raising money to support other crime and safety initiatives in the community. The Board’s leadership and guidance is a valuable component in keeping Crime Stoppers a viable and effective agency. We look forward to continuing our work in 2016 to support local law enforcement and the community.
