VicPD is always striving to be as transparent and accountable as possible. That’s why we have launched Open VicPD as a one-stop hub for information about the Victoria Police Department. Here you’ll find our interactive VicPD Community Dashboard, our online Community Safety Report Cards, publications, and other information that tells the story of how VicPD is working towards its strategic vision of A Safer Community Together.
