Columbia, TN (September 8, 2026) – The Columbia Police Department is announcing a new program that will allow off-duty Columbia Police officers to be hired for approved events, activities, traffic control, security and other services throughout the community.
Beginning September 2026, those seeking an additional law enforcement presence for an event or other approved need will be able to request an off-duty Columbia Police officer through the Off-Duty Management platform.
The new program provides the community with another public safety resource, offering access to trained Columbia Police officers when an additional law enforcement presence may help enhance safety at an event, gathering or other activity.
All costs associated with the service are paid by the party requesting the officer. This includes the officer’s time and any equipment or resources used for the assignment. No taxpayer dollars are used to cover the cost of the requested service.
The Columbia Police Department will partner with Off-Duty Management to coordinate requests and administer the program through OfficerTRAK®. The service provides 24/7 customer assistance and handles scheduling, invoicing and other administrative aspects of each request.
Those interested in hiring an off-duty Columbia Police officer can submit a request through Off-Duty Management via ColumbiaTN.gov or contact Off-Duty Management directly at 1-877-636-8300.

"I wanted to just take a moment to say thank you to Jeff and Missie and the rest of the people at the station for everything they do to help out myself and the rest of the county... for a guy that always seems to wait to remember that something needed to be put on the Community Calendar till the very last minute for the Forrest band of blue or something going on like a meet and greet at my store... Missie has never hesitated for a second to tell me she would make it happen... so from the very bottom of my heart THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO."

"In 2013, the Lewisburg Animal Shelter Volunteers began a twice-weekly program on WJJM called “Marshall County Pet Patrol”. The purpose was two-fold, first to talk about new intakes with the hope of finding their rightful owners and second, to help find adopters by describing all of our current residents in detail. The results have far exceeded our expectations, and thanks in a big way to our radio exposure our adoption rates have increased significantly. Thank you to the entire staff at WJJM, and our sponsor, Veterinary Services of Chapel Hill…together we are saving the lives of precious fur babies."
