The primary goal of the Port Dickinson Police Department is to preserve the rights of all residents and visitors without prejudice or bias against race, gender, religion, ethnic and national origin or sexual orientation so that they may live prosperous lives and enjoy themselves.  This is achieved through the protection of life and property; through the resolution of conflict and emergency situations; through the creation and maintenance of a feeling of security within the community; through a reduction of crime by minimizing opportunity through various crime prevention strategies as well as through the diligent apprehension and subsequent prosecution of offenders.

It is the duty of each member of the Port Dickinson Police department to strive on a daily basis to succeed in accomplishing these goals and objectives.  All members of the Port Dickinson Police Department are expected to carry out these responsibilities in a diligent and professional manner.  Port Dickinson Police Officers must seek out and preserve public confidence by maintaining high ethical standards, demonstrating impartial service to the law, and by offering service and trust to all members of the public.
