R.C.M.P
Policing services for the City of Kelowna are provided by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. The RCMP has proudly served Canadian communities for more than 130 years establishing a reputation as one of the most respected police forces in the world.

Community Operational Support Unit (COSU)
Service delivery is based on the Community Policing concept which emphasizes community partnerships to maintain “safe homes and safe communities."
In addition to the main police office situated downtown, three Community Policing Offices are in operation in the Mission, Rutland and Glenmore
neighbourhoods.
The success of Community Policing in Kelowna can be attributed, in part, to the more than two hundred highly skilled and trained community volunteers who assist with the Community Policing Offices and associated Crime Prevention initiatives. Kelowna RCMP also provides services to West Kelowna, Peachland, Lake Country, and Big White.
Regional District of Central Okanagan
Community Policing
The goal of the Community Policing Office is to help fulfill the RCMP’s commitment to work in partnership with the community by sharing the delivery of policing services. To achieve this goal, Community Policing Offices are intended to be user-friendly interfaces for the RCMP where the general public is invited to direct a variety of police or crime related inquiries or initiate non-emergency crime reports.
