We are excited to introduce Avondale Police Trooper Carter! This will be a platform for the Pennsylvania State Police, Avondale Barracks, to provide information to Franklin Township residents. For those residents who don’t know, the Pennsylvania State Police, Avondale Barracks, provide full-service police protection and resources 24/7 to Franklin Township.

My name is Michael Carter and I have been with the Pennsylvania State Police for five years. I was assigned to the patrol section but just recently took the position as an alternate Community Service Officer.
My goal as a Community Service Officer is to maintain a good connection between the community and the Pennsylvania State Police, Avondale Station. I will be participating in current and upcoming events for schools and other community organizations as well as creating new events. I believe it is also important to keep up with and provide the community with information regarding events going on in their communities.

You can also visit the Community Access to Information Dashboard (CAID) to see the most up to date information/statistics regarding calls in your township.
