Our Purpose
The purpose of the Wake Forest Police Department is to protect and serve the community. The department strives to protect the rights of all persons to be free from criminal attack, to be secure in their possessions, and to live in peace. The department serves the citizenry of Wake Forest by performing law enforcement functions in a professional manner and it is to those people that the department is ultimately responsible.
Our Primary Objective
An urban society free from crime and disorder remains an unachieved ideal; nevertheless, consistent with the values of a free society, it is the primary objective of the Wake Forest Police Department to (as closely as possible) approach this ideal. In doing so, the department's role is to enforce the law in a fair and impartial manner, recognizing the statutory and judicial limitations of police authority and the constitutional rights of all persons.
The Wake Forest Police Department is comprised of 65 employees (54 sworn, 11 non-sworn).
