Field Training Team
ACPD recognizes the importance of having a comprehensive and fully effective Field Training Team (FTT) and its responsibilities to orient, integrate, and field train newly hired, reassigned, or recently promoted sworn officers. Such training, monitoring and feedback are critical to an officer’s development, the quality of their performance, and their contribution toward upholding the mission of both ACPD and the County. All training for recruit officers is in compliance with Virginia Department of Criminal Justice Services training mandates for police officers. In addition, this agency requires all newly sworn police officers to successfully complete an additional recruit training program prior to assignment in Patrol.
Honor Guard Team
The mission of the Honor Guard Team is to represent ACPD at public functions and events throughout the state. The unit is routinely called upon to perform at all types of events from parades to the funerals of fallen officers and their families.
Wellness Team
ACPD’s Wellness Program is a voluntary program to help promote the overall health of sworn and non-sworn employees through physical fitness, mental wellness, and fitness/nutritional education. Our Wellness Team members assist participants in maintaining and/or improving their overall health.
Crisis Assessment Team
The Crisis Assessment Team will intervene with mental health customers or anyone having a mental health crisis event. Team members will offer community resources and mediate a plan of assistance involving Region Ten or other health-related providers as needed.
