The Plano Police Department receives new Teddy Bears donated by citizens and businesses. The Teddy Bears are kept in police cars, and when an officer encounters a child who has been traumatized due to tragedy or victimization, the child is given a bear. The child is comforted by the bear in an unfortunate or unfamiliar surrounding. For more information on this program, or how you can donate a Teddy Bear, please contact the Crime Prevention Unit at 972.941.2431. |
