The Hispanic Liaisons Office of the Annapolis Police Department is located at 199 Taylor Ave., Annapolis Maryland, 21401, is available on a daily basis to receive telephone calls from Spanish speaking residents. Callers are referred to the proper person(s) or agencies to address their needs. Interpretation is rendered as needed to at least begin the process. Non- Spanish speakers also may call in if they are dealing with a Spanish speaker, and telephone interpretation is provided to address any immediate concerns. The liaison also mediates many disputes between English and non-English speakers when possible.

The Hispanic Liaisons Office provides walk in service for issues that can not be resolved over the phone. Spanish speaking residents often use this service to file police reports for non-immediate matters requiring a police report. Officers that encounter Spanish speaking residents in the field may refer them to the walk-in service for non- immediate matters as well. While the primary concern is law-enforcement issues, the Liaison often can provide referral assistance for many and varied other concerns. Appointments are not necessary, but appointments may be made for the more in-depth matters. For those who do not wish to meet at the Police Station, appointments can be made to meet in one of our sub-stations.
