We had a very special visitor stop by the Jackson Police Department last week!

Asher was celebrating his birthday, and one of his birthday wishes was to meet Chief Humphreys and visit our department because he hopes to become a police officer when he grows up.

We were honored to help make his birthday wish come true! Asher got to spend some time with Chief Humphreys, check out the department, and even see what it feels like to sit behind the Chief’s desk. We think he looked right at home!
Asher, keep dreaming big, working hard, and never lose that desire to serve and help others. Who knows—we may just be looking at a future Jackson Police Officer!

As schools across our area head back into session, we'd like to remind everyone to stay alert and watch for children walking to and from school. You'll also be seeing school buses back on the road, picking up and dropping off students each day.

Here's a quick refresher: When you see a stopped school bus with its stop arm extended and red lights flashing, you must stop as required by law. Always stay alert—children may not be aware of traffic and can unexpectedly enter the roadway.

Please slow down, eliminate distractions, and use extra caution around school buses, school zones, and crosswalks. A few extra moments of patience can help keep our children safe.

Let's all do our part to make this school year a safe one. Drive carefully and watch for our students!

The Jackson Police Department is proud to announce that Chief James Humphreys has been awarded the prestigious Egon Bittner Award by the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA).

The Egon Bittner Award is presented to chief executive officers who have led a CALEA-accredited agency for 15 or more consecutive years. The award recognizes these leaders for their outstanding commitment to professional excellence, their significant contributions to the public safety profession, and their dedication to advancing the mission of CALEA.

The award is named in honor of Professor Egon Bittner, whose work played a vital role in CALEA's early development during 1979–1980. He later served as a CALEA Commissioner from 1981 through 1988, helping guide the organization during its critical formative years.

Please join us in congratulating Chief James Humphreys on this well-deserved recognition and thanking him for his years of dedicated leadership and service to the Jackson Police Department and the community.
