Congratulations to one of our DHQ customers, Brewer Police Department!
At last night's city council meeting, the Brewer Police Department was awarded it's accreditation status through the MLEAP (Maine Law Enforcement Accreditation Program).
Agencies choosing to undergo this voluntary program must prove compliance with best law enforcement practices and standards in Maine. These standards were carefully developed when the Maine Chief's of Police Association created the program to help Maine police agencies meet their professional obligations to Maine citizens.
This process consisted of a tremendous amount of detail oriented work conducted by our officers. This work ranged from a complete overhaul of policies and procedures to outside inspections of our evidence room, and use of force reviews. Essentially, we opened up our operations for outside inspectors to review and critique.
This award would not have been possible without the dedication of every single member of the Brewer Police Department (sworn and civilian alike). I thank all of them for their diligence, professionalism and hard work.
