The Voice of the Sheriffs
Since 1976, the Maine Sheriffs Association
has been the voice of Maine's sheriffs, over
one-thousand men and women united in the service of protecting Maine's citizens and visitors. We are committed to fostering the effectiveness of
the Office of Sheriff through leadership,
innovative practices, legislative initiatives, education, and training.
SPOTLIGHT ON / YOUR LOCAL SHERIFF
Working to keep you safe.
Your local sheriff is working every day to keep your community safe, but how well do you really know them? There are 16 sheriffs in Maine, but only one is yours. We encourage you to learn more about the top elected law-enforcement official in your county and how you can support the work of your local sheriff's office.
Connect with your local sheriff.
