The Cambridge Police Department is committed to promoting transparency and providing the community with opportunities to engage and be informed. The transparency portal provides a centralized location for the most commonly requested public materials, including policies and procedures, trainings, use of force, complaints, and special reports. Placing these items in one place is meant to help residents, businesses and other interested parties locate information more effectively than before. We will update the portal as new information becomes available.
To CPD: Complaints will be accepted from any source, whether made in person (125 Sixth St.), by mail, or over the phone (617-349-3384). You may also submit a complaint via e-mail.
