Door County's Therapy Dog
In the high-stress, high-stakes world of law enforcement and other kinds of first responders, the value of a therapy dog cannot be overstated. These companions provide a source of emotional support, stress relief, and community engagement.
The Crime Prevention Foundation is asking for your financial support to bring the first therapy dog available to first responders in our community.
"The value of therapy dogs of law enforcement cannot be underestimated."

School Resource Officer Program
A well-founded School Resource Officer program is one of the best school security investments a community can make. The return on that investment, however, goes well beyond school security.
Thanks to the generosity of the community, there is now a School Resource Officer in every school district in Door County.
"Our community's collaborative approach is a key component in helping to provide the safest learning environments."

K-9 Units
The Crime Prevention Foundation is one of the easiest ways the community can help the Sheriff’s Department live out its mission. Door County’s K-9 units are one of the most beloved programs the Crime Prevention Foundation helped revitalize.
Contributions from people like you have helped us raise funds to pay for the purchase, training, and equipping of the new K-9 units.
"We believe that Police K-9s can often help prevent officers from having to rest to, or be subjected to, deadly force."
