READING — Chief David Clark is pleased to report that a team of assessors from the Massachusetts Police Accreditation Commission (MPAC) is scheduled to visit the Department to conduct re-accreditation assessments this May. 

A team of assessors from MPAC will visit the Department from May 13 to May 15 for a comprehensive examination of the Reading Police Department’s policies and procedures, operations and facilities for re-accreditation.

Verification by the Assessment Team that the Reading Police Department meets the Commission’s standards is part of a voluntary process to gain state accreditation — a self-initiated evaluation process by which police departments strive to meet and maintain standards that have been established for the profession, by the profession.

The Massachusetts Police Accreditation Program consists of 274 mandatory standards as well as 120 optional standards. In order to achieve accreditation status, the Department must meet all applicable mandatory standards as well as 55 percent of the optional standards.

Achieving accreditation is a highly prized recognition of law enforcement professional excellence.

Anyone interested in learning more about this program is invited to call the Department’s Accreditation Manager Lt. Christopher Jones, at 781-942-6701.
