To establish a total partnership with the citizens of Durham whereby the Police Department and all citizens are totally committed to work in harmony to preserve life; protect property; maintain human rights/equality; and promote individual responsibility and community commitment.

The Durham Police Department Vision Statement:

The Durham Police Department is committed to being the kind of organization we and the citizens we serve are proud of and believe in;

We intend to represent the best the law enforcement profession has to offer;

Where all employees, regardless of rank or job classification, have an opportunity to contribute, learn, grow, receive recognition for accomplishments, and advance based on merit; and

Where the citizens we serve are treated with dignity and respect.

We are striving for a work environment where everyone feels and is valued and respected, treated fairly, listened to, heard, and involved in his or her own personal and professional development; and

Where every customer, internal or external, is treated as we would want another police employee to treat one of our family members.

We are striving to gain satisfaction from accomplishments and friendships, to have balanced personal and work lives, to have a safe environment, and to be professional in all our endeavors.
