The Red Bluff Police Department is a full-service Police Department that is currently staffed with twenty-three sworn police officers and ten civilian employees. The Department is divided organizationally into two Divisions. These Divisions are the Operations Division and the Support/Special Services Division. The Operations Division consists of the uniformed Patrol Unit and Dispatch Unit. The Support/Special Services Division consists of the Investigations Unit, Records Unit and the Community Service Officer Unit.

The purpose of the Police Department is to provide for the safety and security of the citizens of Red Bluff.

Our goal is to maintain a well equipped and well trained department that can provide a high level of service. The Members of the Police Department are committed to providing "Service with Integrity."

The Red Bluff Police Department remains committed to Community Oriented Policing. We continue to work with Neighborhood Watch Groups. Our Police Officers participate in the Random Citizen Contact (RCC) Program, which is designed to encourage officers to make contact with citizens in an informal setting. The Department maintains a Community Field Office Program that allows officers to complete some of their reports out of the office and within the community.

We remain committed to our Mission Statement, which reads, "We, the members of the Red Bluff Police Department, are committed to being responsive to our community in the delivery of quality services. Recognizing our responsibility to maintain order, while affording dignity and respect to every individual, our objective is to improve the quality of life through a community partnership that promotes safe, secure neighborhoods throughout our city."
