The Riley County Police Department is set to undergo re-accreditation and will begin that process next week.
For 32 years, the department has been recognized by the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA) for high standards in law enforcement. On-site assessments will be held Monday through Thursday of next week, examining all aspects of RCPD’s policies and procedures, management, operations and support services.
As part of the assessment, community members and RCPD employees are invited to provide comment regarding the department’s ability to comply with set standards.
Accreditation is voluntary and the most recent assessment of RCPD occurred in 2020.
