Criminal justice issues and needs in the 21st century have evolved. They require thought leaders to chart an effective course forward to foster sound policy and practice, community engagement, and public safety. The nation’s sheriffs are uniquely positioned to educate the public on the role of Sheriff and their vantage point regarding criminal justice, community engagement, public safety, policing, and corrections/detention. Through the development of the All Sheriffs’ Authority, sheriffs convene to discuss contemporary challenges facing the nation’s jails; identify needs and resources for addressing these challenges; consider strategies for implementation; and promote best and promising practices.
