\"communityCollaboration\"<\/a>With some law enforcement agencies using Pinterest to post mug shots, Twitter to send out crime alerts and Facebook and NextDoor to reach out to the general public, public safety organizations are recognizing the value of the easy community connections and communication that can come with social media.
