Littleton PD Receives Award
As part of the accreditation process, the department is subject to annual review of operations, policy, and procedures, as well as an extensive on-site review, which takes place every four years and requires a comprehensive review, including a week-long audit by outside assessors. LPD participated in the on-site assessment in October 2025, working to receive reaccreditation for the full four-year cycle. This reaccreditation demonstrates the LPD’s commitment to professional excellence in policy and practice.
The CALEA commission provides an opportunity for individuals to share feedback, comments, commendations, and other information regarding LPD’s quality of service or other information relevant to the accreditation process through the Accreditation Public Comment Portal.
The purpose of this public portal is to receive comments regarding an agency’s compliance with CALEA standards, engagement in the service community, delivery of public safety services, and overall candidacy for accredited status. The overall intent of the accreditation process is to provide the participating agency with information to support continuous improvement, as well as foster the pursuit of professional excellence.
