Description: There are over 3,000 sheriffs in the United States. Sheriffs&#8217; offices are complex organizations with a variety of responsibilities. The office of sheriff is inherently powerful and influential, especially within the criminal justice system and communities they serve. Sheriffs operate 85% of the approximately 3,200 jails nationwide, provide patrol services, court security, civil process, transportation, and/or criminal investigation. In addition, sheriffs are called upon to navigate community conversations about justice, equity, and accountability; to engage and convene diverse community stakeholder groups; and provide healthcare and treatment while ensuring public safety. The National Sheriffs&#8217; Institute (NSI) provides executive leadership training for the nation&#8217;s sheriffs. The NSI assists sheriffs as leaders of their organizations and communities and equips them to manage essential aspects of their office.
