It is the mission of the Grant County Sheriff Department to develop a highly trained, efficient, and professional law enforcement office in order to provide outstanding service to the citizens of Grant County, the Commonwealth of Kentucky, and our Country. In order to reach this goal, we have attempted to build an organization with outstanding individuals that clearly display high moral integrity coupled with excellent capabilities and the drive to work with pride to accomplish this goal. It has long recognized that outstanding accomplishments can be obtained when each member of the department not only understands the goals and objectives of the department, but also identifies with them to the extent that ownership of these goals and objectives are shared by all.

Public service is not limited to a chosen group or groups or to individuals. The Grant County Sheriff’s Department is committed to the community regardless of age, race, religion, sexual preference, socio-economic background, or any other factor. Discrimination of any form will not be tolerated within the Grant County Sheriff’s Department.

Along with the responsibility of providing firm and fair law enforcement services to the public comes the duty of fiscal responsibility. The Grant County Sheriff’s Department is committed to finding new and innovative ways to increase technology and manpower, prevent duplication of services within the Sheriff’s Department, and to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the department by making clear concise decisions that will benefit the community as a whole.

Our mission is never-ending and every employee must strive to achieve our goals each and every day in order to serve the public in the manner in which they expect and deserve.

The accomplishments of goals are the test by which we measure our success both in personal life and In business. However, it is not enough to be satisfied with these accomplishments. Goal setting and achievement is never ending. We must be dedicated to setting new goals and striving to attain them time after time. The Grant County Sheriff’s Department has a long history of accomplishing the goals that are set and is constantly striving to find new and innovative ways to deliver law enforcement services to Grant County while remaining fiscally responsible.

It is the goal of the Grant County Sheriff’s Department to provide the citizens of Grant County with professional and ethical law enforcement officers who are dedicated to public service. Law enforcement touches the lives of many individuals. The firm and fair enforcement of laws must be balanced with compassion and understanding for all of mankind. Attaining these goals can only be accomplished by leading by example and training. From the Sheriff through the first line of supervision high expectations are placed on each individual to perform their sworn duty. Training of law enforcement officers is paramount in an ever-changing profession. Technological advances and law enforcement delivery system trends demand constant training for all law enforcement professionals in order to better serve our communities. Maintaining high levels of training for all law enforcement officers in the Sheriff’s Department will remain to be a high priority for this office.

With the understanding that the Sheriff’s Department is the voice of law enforcement within the community and the philosophy that we represent law enforcement by the people and for the people we will strive to not only listen to the community but to hear the community. Serving the public in a professional, ethical, efficient, firm and fair manner is the greatest goal of public service. The Grant County Sheriff’s Department will achieve this goal by utilizing the voice of the people, high levels of law enforcement training, efficient and effective management techniques, and the statutes of the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
