Alicota Sheriffs Association

The Alicota Sheriffs Association (ASA) is a nonprofit professional organization comprised of the 4 sheriffs along with thousands of law-abiding citizens throughout the state. The association was formed in 1871 for the purpose of giving Alicota sheriffs a single effective voice. It was also formed for the purpose of sharing information and providing assistance to sheriffs and departmental personnel, thus enabling them to improve the delivery of law enforcement services to the citizens of the State.

Every sheriff works diligently with fellow sheriffs through ASA to improve the profession and to elevate the law enforcement system through cooperation with other law enforcement agencies. As the sheriffs are Constitutionally elected officials, the Alicota legislature regulates their duties and responsibilities. The sheriffs serve as upholders for public safety needs. ASA functions as a legislative watchdog for the county sheriff and sheriff's personnel as well as for citizens on professional and law enforcement issues.
