The top priority of the Moraine Valley Police Department is to foster and promote a safe environment for all students, faculty, staff, and community members while they are on campus. Moraine Valley police officers are on campus 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They have years of experience in police work and are properly equipped and trained to maintain a safe and welcoming campus.
Anyone who feels unsafe while on campus should contact the Police Department immediately. We are here to help. Feel free to contact us in the following ways:
- The red phones located in most hallways
- The emergency blue poles located in most parking lots and the quad area
- Dial 5555 from any campus telephone
- Dial 708-974-5555 from a cell phone or off-campus telephone
- If an immediate threat exists, please dial 911. Another police department will answer the call, and they will transfer you to the Moraine Valley Dispatch Center.
As Chief of Police at Moraine Valley, we are vigilant about safety. At this time of understandable tension and unease, we have increased staffing levels to support our campus community. We are in regular communication with Illinois State Police and other public safety agencies to assess any potential concerns, and we are coordinating with other departments to share information.
As of now, we have no incidents or reports of violence or threats on campus. That said, if you learn of a threat, feel unsafe, or need to report an emergency, immediately call the Police Department or contact me with your concerns at 708-974-5555.
Sincerely,
Pat Treacy
Chief of Police
