Parsippany Police Seek Feedback From Public For Accreditation

PARSIPPANY, NJ — As the Parsippany Police Department seeks accreditation, officials are asking for the public’s feedback and comments on the entity's performance.

The accreditation is given by the New Jersey State Association of Chiefs of Police (NJSACP), which assesses police departments' policies, procedures, management, operations, and support services. The NJSACP will arrive in Parsippany later this month for the assessment.

Part of the voluntary process is collecting feedback from agency employees and the public. Comments can be spoken over the phone, handwritten, or emailed.

To share comments via telephone, call 973-263-4285 on March 25 between 10 and 11 a.m. Telephone comments will be capped at five minutes. For more information, call Parsippany Officer Daniel Ross with questions at 973-263-4337.

Email comments can be sent to socialmedia@parpolice.com or hdelgado@njsacop.org.

You can also mail handwritten comments to the New Jersey State Association of Chiefs of Police, Law Enforcement Accreditation Commission at 751 Route 73 North, Suite 12, Marlton, NJ, 08053.

Accreditation status is valid for three years, and accredited departments must submit annual reports “attesting to their continued compliance with those standards under which it was initially accredited.”
