YORK COUNTY, SC - The York County Sheriff's Office has been accredited by The Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement  (CALEA) since 2008. In 2022, after a rigorous assessment of agency policy and procedures, the York County Sheriff’s Office was awarded reaccreditation from the CALEA for the fifth time.

As part of our on-going CALEA Accreditation process, CALEA has created a public comment portal for each of their accredited agencies.  The purpose of this portal is to receive public comments regarding an agency's compliance with CALEA standards, engagement in the service community, delivery of public safety services, and overall candidacy for accredited status. These comments can be in the form of commendations or concerns. The overall intent of the accreditation process is to provide the participating agency with information to support continuous improvement, as well as foster the pursuit of professional excellence and this new approach works to further that objective.

IMPORTANT: CALEA is not an investigatory body and subsequently the public portal should not be used to submit information for such purposes. Additionally, there will be no response other than acknowledgment of submissions; however, the information will be considered in context to its relevancy to compliance with standards and the tenets of CALEA® Accreditation.
