MISSION
The mission of the Palm Springs Police Department's IMPACT
Team is to improve quality-of-life in Palm Springs by focusing on
issues related to the unsheltered (“Operation Restore Hope”),
nuisance calls, theft, and challenges that impact daily patrol
operations. Collaborating with non-profit organizations and city
departments, IMPACT’s goal is to develop and implement
sustainable solutions.
One man told Chief Mills it was because of IMPACT helping him get off the streets he
now has “a job, an apartment and better quality of life”.
