The Ambassador Program consists of volunteers trained to provide foot patrol services in the downtown Hayward area. An Ambassador usually volunteers about 2 hours per week. Ambassadors are recognizable by their green Ambassador jackets and receive special training from the Police Department.

Their services include:

• Providing information and assistance to businesses, residents and visitors in downtown Hayward.
• Assisting members of the public in finding places in the downtown and surrounding areas.
• Reporting illegal or suspicious activities to the police.
