Accreditation Program
Accreditation is a progressive and contemporary way of helping police agencies evaluate and 
improve their overall performance. It provides formal recognition that an organization meets or exceeds general expectations of quality in the field. Accreditation acknowledges the implementation of policies that are conceptually sound and operationally effective.
Operation IMPACT
Operation IMPACT – an initiative of the New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services – supports strategic crime-fighting and violence reduction initiatives in the 17 counties outside of New York City that account for 80 percent of the crime upstate and on Long Island.
Key principles of Operation IMPACT include:
- Information sharing and partnerships among law enforcement agencies
- Intelligence-based policing
- Timely use of accurate crime data
- Involvement of community organizations
