For decades, the Village and Police Department have worked in partnership with the Community Diversity Group to discuss opportunities to strengthen community relationships, and enhance awareness that all humanity belongs to one family, to fight prejudice wherever it is found, and to assure that all persons have equal opportunities regardless of their race.
The Village of La Grange and the La Grange Police Department have a commitment to serving every member of our community with integrity, professionalism and equity – no matter their race, religion, orientation or housing status. The Village’s website includes information and Frequently Asked Questions regarding its Commitment to Community, Commitment to Equitable Treatment and Commitment to Diversity.
