Women's police station

Women's police stations (WPS; also units or offices) (Spanish: Comisaría de la Mujer, Portuguese: Delegacia da mulher) are police stations specializing in handling crimes with female victims. The "women's police station" concept was first introduced in the Kozhikode District of Kerala, India on 27 October 1973. In 1985, a similar concept was introduced in São Paulo, Brazil; this station processed over 2,000 reports in its first six months of operations. Similar stations have also been established by police in Africa.

Officers at these stations are only allowed to respond to certain crimes, such as psychological violence, domestic violence, family violence, as well as specific types of threats and sexual violence. Some units offer financial help, counseling, and medical care for women who are having trouble.
