Parkdale has an active crime prevention program called Operation Restoration. Based on the success of this program, which originated in Parkdale in cooperation with Police and City leadership, other neighborhoods are now adopting this model. Regular meetings are jointly held with the Dallas Police Department (DPD) where issues relating to crime or suspected crime are reported and discussed. Each item is followed-up by officers dedicated to serve the issues opened through this process. Operation Restoration Process[graphic needed to illustrate the following process]

How To ParticipateParkdale's crime prevention program derives its success almost entirely from neighbors who are reporting actionable intelligence to the DPD. To participate in this program, neighbors provide written intelligence reports to the officers at the Operation Restoration meetings.
