About the NCPC

The Greater Rockridge NCPC was officially established in April 2002 to respond to the newly reorganized Community Policing Program of the City of Oakland Police Department. It combines beats 12Y and 13X under a single NCPC and operates under its own by-laws.
 
Monthly steering committee meetings consist of officers, committee chairpersons and volunteers, a Neighborhood Services Coordinator (NSC) from OPD, and our Problem-Solving Officer (PSO) – a specifically-designated OPD patrol officer.  Any resident community member who wishes to regularly attend and participate in meetings is also welcome to join.
 
In addition to monthly meetings, Town Hall Meetings are held twice yearly. These meetings are intended specifically to answer questions about crime, to invite community input and to bring speakers of interest to meet and discuss relevant topics of interest to the Greater Rockridge neighborhood.
 
Officers are elected annually. As of March, our 2008/2009 officers are:

Chairman:  Frank Castro

Chair: Frank Castro
• Vice Chair (vacant)
• Secretary: Karen Ivy
• Treasurer: Denise Boisvert
