Give your feedback on Huntsville PD
The department seeks community feedback as part of its re-accreditation process with the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA).
Comments, which may include both commendations and concerns, will be sent directly to CALEA for evaluation. The portal is specifically for providing feedback on HPD’s service quality.
Feedback can be submitted through CALEA’s public comment portal.
What is CALEA?
HPD first received CALEA accreditation in 1996 and has continuously upheld this status. This voluntary accreditation, recognized as the gold standard in public safety, helps ensure that agencies remain accountable to both the community and their own standards.
“HPD strives to comply with CALEA’s stringent accreditation standards, a benchmark we’ve achieved for the last 27 years. In doing so, our department has developed cutting-edge training techniques and key practices that help us serve and protect our citizens at a higher level.”
Chief Kirk Giles, Huntsville PD
