Police and Parking
The Riverside Community College Police Department provides law enforcement services to our three campuses (Riverside, Norco, Moreno Valley), as well as several off site education centers. The department operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Pursuant to the authority of the Board of Trustees, and under the general direction of the Vice Chancellor of Student Services, our department has continued to enhance its professional services. Department divisions include patrol services at each main campus, a centralized detective division, a bicycle patrol, a Gang Unit, and a Sexual Assault Response Team. We also participate in the Crime Free Multi-Housing Program.
The RCCD Police Department has a Memorandum of Understanding with the Riverside Police Department and Riverside County Sheriff's Department that provides the department with assistance for incidents requiring specialized resources and expertise. This MOU also provides the guidelines for the RCC Police Department to assist municipal law enforcement in providing police services to our surrounding communities. Our department enjoys an excellent working relationship with these outstanding law enforcement agencies.
Currently, the RCCD Police Department employs 33 sworn personnel. Department organization consists of a Chief of Police, two Sergeants, three Senior Officers, two Detectives, and 25 Police Officers. As the campuses grow, we expect to enhance our services and add to our sworn compliment.
