A Message from the Chief

Welcome to the South Brunswick Police Department website.

Our commitment to service is at the heart of everything we do. Every day, the men and women of this department come to work dedicated to protecting our community, helping those in need, and making South Brunswick a safer place to live, work, and raise a family.

But we know that effective policing is about more than the work of our officers. Our greatest strength is our community. The partnerships we have built with residents, businesses, community organizations, schools, and Township departments are essential to our success. By working together, listening to one another, and sharing a common commitment to South Brunswick, we can continue to build a safer and stronger community.

We hope this website makes it easier for you to connect with your police department, find the information and resources you need, and learn more about the services we provide. Most importantly, we want you to know that we are here to serve you.

Thank you for your continued trust, support, and partnership. We are proud to serve the South Brunswick community.
