Police Seeks International Re-Accreditation
Public Comment Period Begins Aug. 25
In 1989, the Arlington Police Department was first accredited by
the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, Inc.
and has since been re-accredited every three years.
Arlington is one of only 36 state agencies to voluntarily commit to
CALEA’s international standards for administration, operation and
technical support.
That re-accreditation process is once again underway.
“Our department’s foremost concern is safety and security of
Arlington,” said Police Chief Theron Bowman. “Through this process,
we are working to strengthen crime prevention and improve overall
service quality to the community.”
Out-of-state assessors will begin arriving next week. The
re-accreditation process also includes input from employees and
citizens. Learn more at www.arlingtonpd.org.
