Our Priorities

Our priorities in serving idaho

Contributing Towards a Prosperous Idaho

When people think about law enforcement, they often tend to focus on the arresting and enforcement functions. Idaho’s sheriffs see their role as much broader and deeper. Over the past decade thousands have moved to Idaho because of its many favorable attributes and way of life we enjoy. As sheriffs, our goal is to preserve a beautiful and free place where our citizens can thrive and prosper. It’s a positive goal.


Keeping the Peace Means People Can Live Freely

Peace creates the conditions where freedom can thrive. As sheriffs, our focus is maintaining law and order and contributing to an atmosphere where our citizens can live and work and recreate with confidence and optimism.


Sheriffs Uphold the Rights of Our Constituents

Our constitution guarantees the right to pursue happiness. As duly elected officials, your sheriffs are the chief law enforcement officials in each county. In enforcing laws, we uphold the rights of our citizens as defined in the national and state constitutions.
