About CIS
The Community Investigative Support (CIS) was founded by PNP CIDG Director, Police Major General Samuel D. Pagdilao Jr. (Ret) on August 18, 2011. The objective of the organization is to enlist, organize, train, and engage law abiding citizens from different sectors of society to become active participants in preventing and suppressing crimes, promoting public order and protecting the community against disasters and calamities.
Local chapters were organized in municipalities, cities, provinces and regions throughout the Philippines and in other countries like Japan, Saudi Arabia, Spain, and Italy. Inspired and guided by the Bayanihan spirit, volunteers selflessly offer their services, talents and resources to help in nation building, promoting peace, order and public safety in their respective communities. CIS became a distinct juridical entity/non-government organization (NGO) after it was officially registered with the Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on May 23, 2012.

Posted on October 13, 2023
Warm greetings!
1. Please be informed that the price of CIS ID and Badge will increase effective 15 October 2023. The last adjustment in price was implemented on January 1, 2021.
2. The cost of the ID will now be P300, while the badge will now cost P350. This adjustment was decided on by the suppliers mainly due to the increase in the cost of materials, which CIS has no control of.
3. As for the Admission Fee for new members and the Annual Membership Renewal Fee for old members, it shall remain at P500, which is a rate that CIS has charged since its birth on Aug 18, 2011 and will continue to charge unless forced by extreme circumstances.
4. Thanks for understanding, and please be guided accordingly.
