CALEA National Accreditation
During CALEA’s March 2021 conference, the Mayfield Heights Police Department was awarded national accreditation by the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA). The CALEA Accreditation Program identifies mandatory standards that require our Department to meet or exceed policies and procedures on life, health, safety, and legal issues, as well as conditions to reduce risk and liability exposure. CALEA Accreditation is known as the "Gold Standard"; less than 5 percent of police departments in the country have earned this distinction.
Earning the CALEA accreditation seal is the mark of professional excellence. The seals are reserved only for law enforcement agencies demonstrating the highest professional standard. The Mayfield Heights Police Department proudly displays this seal on our police cruisers.
CALEA Public Comment Portal
Anyone wishing to provide comments regarding our agency's compliance with CALEA standards, engagement in the service community, delivery of public safety services, and overall candidacy for accredited status, may comment to CALEA through the Public Comment Portal.
These comments can be in the form of commendations or concerns. The overall intent of the accreditation process is to provide our agency with information to support continuous improvement, as well as foster the pursuit of professional excellence.
