State certifies Monroe PD’s sex offender management program
Monroe - The Village of Monroe Police Department has been certified by the New York State Association of Chiefs of Police in a new sex offender management program.
The certification recognizes that the Village of Monroe Police are employing proactive and sound practices in managing sex offenders in our community.
“For more than a decade, managing sex offenders has been an important function of law enforcement,” said John P. Grebert, the association’s executive director. “Police are on the front lines in ensuring that offenders comply with the law and that citizens are informed about certain offenders living in their communities.”
The “Certified Best Practices” program was launched in January to recognize police agencies that employ certain strategies to monitor sex offenders. In addition to having a written policy pertaining to sex offender management, Village of Monroe Police Department also provided the association’s evaluators with proof of monitoring offenders, community notification, cooperation with other agencies and enforcement.
There are 11 sex offenders living within the 10950 zip code, including three in the Village of Monroe.
