About our Program

This Crime Stoppers Program began in 1982 from the efforts of our City Commission and our Police Department. Our Program now operates as an independent organization. The concept has developed into a combination of efforts by local media, businesses, civic and social clubs, law enforcement agencies, and the public. Donations of airtime, newspaper space, and reward monies have established Crime Stoppers as an effective tool to fight crime in the area.

Mission Statement

The mission of Miami Valley Crime Stoppers is to prevent and reduce crime through partnership amongst the community, law enforcement and the media by providing an outlet that citizens can use to stand against criminals while remaining anonymous.
