The Leesburg Police Citizens Support Team, Inc. (LPCSTI) was established in April of 1996 by the Leesburg, Virginia Police Department as an integral part of community policing in the Town of Leesburg, Virginia. LPCSTI is a nonprofit, volunteer organization of law-abiding citizens which works closely with the Leesburg Police Department to further those “community policing” goals.

Over the years, the Team’s civic-minded members have contributed tens of thousands of hours of volunteer service to the Leesburg Police Department and the Town of Leesburg and have been recognized by federal, state, and local authorities and civic groups. LPCSTI supports the Leesburg Police Department and the Town of Leesburg through a number of activities, including:

• Performing child DNA collection for parents.
• Monitoring traffic speed and flow within the Town.
• Patrolling Town business districts and neighborhoods.
• Manning drug education and public safety displays.
• Conducting street light surveys.
• Assisting in community policing meetings.
• Directing traffic and helping out with crowd control at accidents, emergency scenes, and special events.
