The Washington County, Virginia Sheriff’s Office received its fifth accreditation from the VA Law Enforcement Professional Standards Commission. According to the department, they have been re-accredited each time the process comes around every four years, since their first in 2006.
This process includes a team of assessors spending days at the department to determine whether their procedures and policies meet the high standards that secure the award. The Washington County Sheriff’s Office was told on Monday it has again met the standard to receive accreditation.
