What can members include in their social media posts when representing the department positively?

Including a link to the Department's website in social media posts is a positive way to represent the department. This action directs the audience to official information, resources, and updates about the department's activities, services, and community involvement. It reinforces the credibility of the posts and helps promote transparency, ensuring that the public receives accurate and reliable information. Additionally, sharing official links can foster public engagement and improve awareness of the positive work being done by the department.

In contrast, sharing personal opinions or negative comments about other departments could undermine the professional image of the department and create unnecessary conflict. Including images of past incidents without proper context or authorization may also lead to issues regarding privacy, safety, and the integrity of ongoing investigations. Thus, providing a link to the Department's website is an appropriate and effective means of enhancing the department's public presence on social media.
