The City of Oak Forest is a municipal law enforcement agency based in Oak Forest, Illinois. It operates an education program within the police department that teaches residents about crime prevention and ways to participate in neighborhood safety efforts. The unit serves the local community as part of a mid-sized public safety organization. In February 2025, Jason Reid was named Chief of the Oak Forest Police Department, with retirement anticipated for the incumbent later that month. The department’s focus on community education aligns with its role in promoting public safety for residents of the city. The leadership change around that time reflects ongoing municipal operations of the agency.
