In March, as the Department authorized the wearing of BDUs during the COVID-19 crisis, the LAPRF Board of Directors voted to reimburse reserve officers who purchase the wash-and-wear utility uniforms during the period. 

My plan for the Reserve Unit is in line with the Department’s strategic plan. My goals are to enhance reserve officer deployment to Patrol divisions, expand the number of reserve officers to supplement our patrol force and continue to increase recruitment efforts of reserve officers.
