Department receives accreditation from the state

For the third time, the Bergenfield Police Department has received a Certificate of Accreditation from the New Jersey State Association of Chiefs of Police. It is an accomplishment that only one-third of the more than 470 law enforcement agencies in New Jersey have achieved.

While we officially received re-accreditation on May 9, the department was recognized at the August meeting of the Mayor and Council by Harry J. Delgado, accreditation program manager for the state chiefs association.

The process for accreditation is a rigorous one, and was led by Capt. Cathy Madalone, our department's accreditation manager and public information officer.
