Partners Against Crime

The Partners Against Crime program promotes collaboration among police officers, Durham residents, and city and county government officials to find sustainable solutions to community crime problems and quality of life issues. It is a community based volunteer organization that promotes and executes safety strategies to prevent crime at the neighborhood level. Each of Durham Police Department’s five police districts has a PAC organization that holds monthly PAC meetings. Old Farm is in District 2 and participates in PAC2.

District Two Partners Against Crime meets from 6 p.m. until 8 p.m. on the second Monday of each month at 2107 Hillandale Road (DPS Staff Development Center). Call the District Two Substation (5285 North Roxboro Road) 560-4582 for more details.
