The Lone Star College police department provides a secure environment for faculty, staff, visitors and property. Most of our officers are cross-trained in many areas of public safety including first aid and mental health issues. Their years of experience and training helps us meet our mission statement to provide a safe and secure environment where education can thrive.

We employ both commissioned police officers, who have the same powers and abilities as any other police officer, as well as non-commissioned public safety officers.
