Comments should address the agency’s ability to meet the Commission’s standards for accreditation. A copy of the standards is available for public review at https://azleap.org/about-aleap/

For any additional questions, you may also email the Accreditation Director at stacyolson@azchiefsofpolice.org.

The Chino Valley Police Department must comply with 174 standards to achieve accredited status.

The ALEAP Director is Stacy Olson. “The assessment team is composed of law enforcement practitioners from similar Arizona law enforcement agencies. The assessors will review written materials, interview agency members, and visit offices and other places where compliance with the standards can be observed. Once the assessors complete their review of the agency, they will report to the full Commission, which will then decide if the agency is to be granted accredited status”, Olson stated.

Accreditation is valid for a four-year period during which time the agency must submit annual reports attesting to their continued compliance with those standards under which it was initially accredited.

The Arizona Association of Chiefs of Police (AACOP), is the accrediting agency in the State of Arizona. For more information regarding the Arizona Association of Chiefs of Police, please visit www.azchiefsofpolice.org.
