Food Net Board of Directors Appreciates LPSO Assis

Dear Mike, On behalf of the Board of Directors of Foodnet and the thousands of less-fortunate people who benefit from our food bank, I want to express our gratitude to you and the Department for the major role that you played in our annual Christmas Food Drive. The Twenty-Third annual KLFY-TV-10/Foodnet “Food for Families” food drive was a great success – one of our best. We finished with a total of seventy-four tons of food. Our success could not have been realized without your co-operation and the assistance of the Trustees. The courtesy and co-operation of my friend, Albert Glaude. Albert is always there with his calmness and re-assurance when just about everything is dependent on the assistance of the trustees. I am very grateful to all of you. Sincerely Marcelle F. Citron Founder/Chairman

Sheriff's Office Re-accredited

Wednesday, September 13, 2006

On July 29th 2006 in Lexington, Kentucky the Lafayette Parish Sheriff's Office appeared before and was re-accredited by the nationally recognized CALEA--Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies.

The Lafayette Parish Sheriff's Office is one of only 85 agencies throughout the United States that received accreditation, reaccredidation or recognition. The on-site assessment took place on April 22-26, 2006 and occurs every three years. It examines the department and its ability to maintain and excel in its compliance with 446 professional law enforcement standards. Four basic areas are closely examined and include: Policy and Procedure, Administration, Law Enforcement Operations, and Support Services.

Sheriff Neustrom is proud of the department and its employees. He feels confident that this reaccreditation exemplifies that the Lafayette Parish Sheriff's Office is constantly striving to provide the most professional and modernized service to the residents of Lafayette Parish.
