"Coffee with a Cop": The Chur City Police invites you to coffee and open dialogue

From April 2025, the Chur City Police cordially invites the population to talk directly to the police officers in a relaxed atmosphere with the "Coffee with a Cop" campaign. The aim of this initiative is to further promote and strengthen the active partnership between the population and the police.

Internationally proven format
The "Coffee with a Cop" concept was first implemented in California in 2011 and has since established itself worldwide. The Chur City Police now joins the list of cities that are adopting this successful format.

Open ear for all concerns
At nine selected neighbourhood locations, police officers from different departments are ready to listen and answer questions in person – without a fixed agenda. The informal get-together over a cup of coffee offers space for concerns, ideas and open conversations. Of course, there is also syrup and tea for the little guests. To ensure that older people can also participate in the dialogue, the Chur city police are also visiting the city's retirement homes this year.

Proximity as the key to effective police work
A close connection between the police and the population is essential for successful police work. Through direct exchange, concerns can be identified at an early stage and solutions can be worked out together. Examples from other regions, but also our own experience, show that such initiatives strengthen trust in the police and increase the sense of security of citizens. The Chur City Police is looking forward to numerous encounters, good conversations and a lively exchange.
