MEMORANDUM
TO: All Personnel
FROM: Chief Joseph L. Schroeder
DATE: November 1, 2007
SUBJECT: C.F.A. ACCREDITATION
Accreditation Manager Maria Marino-Bollan and I attended the Commission of Florida
Accreditation (C.F.A.) Quarterly Meeting in Maitland, Florida, for the purpose of
representing the Police Department before the Commission as they reviewed the report
from our on-site inspection. I am extremely pleased to report that the only questions
from the Commission were how were we able to do such great work. By a unanimous
vote, the Delray Beach Police Department received our first ever Reaccreditation.
I want to thank everyone for their hard work and support of the accreditation process.
Being accredited is not a once every three year process but an everyday process. It is
how professional organizations work toward their goals while fulfilling their missions.
Everyone played a role in our reaccreditation, and everyone should take pride in our
accomplishment.
Attached is a copy of the letter from the Commission.
