During the week of November 17-20, 2010, Sheriff Robinson and other Sheriff’s Office staff traveled to Garden City, California
to attend the fall 2010 Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA) conference. During the conference,
we received our first CALEA Public Safety Communications Accreditation Program (PSCAP) re-accreditation award for the Communications
Center. The Communications Center was first accredited in 2007. The Sheriff’s Office first achieved CALEA accreditation
for law enforcement in 1988, and has been re-accredited every three years since. A team of out-of state assessors visited
the Sheriff’s Office in August for our PSCAP re-accreditation assessment, and subsequently authored a report which they submitted
to the CALEA Commission.
Achieving re-accreditation was a cooperative effort of the Communications Section, under the leadership of Communications
Manager Tracie Torrez and the Accreditation Section staff. Accreditation Specialists Julie Walker and Mary Sparacino worked
countless hours to prepare files and prepare for the assessor’s visit.
