One of the reasons Edina works so well is because of the many effective partnerships forged between the city and the schools, commercial businesses, neighborhoods, and civic organizations. We recognize our interdependence, and work together to address the complex issues facing our community.

For over forty years, the Edina Crime Fund has been a valuable community partner. The fund is a proud and significant contributor to many police department services and programs including: Neighbors' Home Watch, Bike Patrol, Junior Police, K-9 program and the Crime Prevention Specialist position. The Fund also has paid out a substantial amount in reward and informant money. This money has assisted the police in solving hundreds of serious crimes, including burglary, robbery and car jacking. The victims of these crimes are Edina residents and business owners just like you - they're your friends and neighbors.
