Welcome to the Acworth Police Department
The Acworth Police Department is committed to serving our community through proactive policing, professionalism, and community partnerships. Our Core Values include Courage, Honor, Service, and Dedication. As I reflect on these standards of performance and commitment that we have placed on ourselves, I am reminded of what a tremendous responsibility our officers have accepted. I am well aware of the need for employing the best of the best personnel and providing each member of this agency with the equipment and training necessary to carry out our mission effectively, safely, and professionally.
It is my responsibility to serve as the balance to ensure that we are responsible stewards of the personnel, financial resources, and powers of a governing authority that are indeed necessary for the accomplishment of our charge. I have the honor of overseeing some of the best trained and most professional police officers and administrators in our state. Being mindful of these factors, we cannot go it alone. We need your prayers, support and input.
I am so proud to serve at home. You see I live here, I shop here, and I am fortunate enough to work here. It truly is my heart’s desire to provide the police services that I would expect if I were any informed and active citizen in this community.
I am very proud of our personnel and their commitment to this community. By immersing The Acworth Police Department in the community we have developed unparalleled relationships with the people that we serve. Because of our philosophy for community and partnerships we have recently received some very prestigious awards of recognition.
