Public Safety (Emergency Management, Fire, Police)

  • Disaster Response

Who We Are

Carrollton Public Safety encompasses the Carrollton Police Department, Carrollton Fire Rescue, and the Carrollton Office of Emergency Management. Each division offers opportunities for citizens involvement on an individual or group basis. 

What We Do

The Office of Emergency Management administers the Carrollton Disaster Response Alliance (CDRA). This is a coalition of community organizations that volunteer to assist during a disaster. Participants can volunteer individually or as part of a group. 

Carrollton Fire Rescue invites residents to join the Cardiac Arrest Rapid Engagement (CARE) Team and deliver AEDs to the scene of nearby cardiac arrest emergencies. Carrollton is the first city in Texas to adopt the groundbreaking Avive 4 Minute City™ program. For more information, view Program Opportunities below.

The Carrollton Citizen Patrol is administered by the Carrollton Police Department volunteer unit. Graduates of the Carrollton Citizen Policy Academy (CPA) are eligible to join the Citizen Patrol. For more information, click here
