MISSION

The mission of the Worcester County Sheriff's Office is to protect the general public by reducing recidivism, investing in inmate rehabilitation programs, addressing substance abuse addiction, becoming a more proactive and supportive member of the Massachusetts law enforcement community, and implementing innovative community education initiatives. Sheriff Guy Glodis has pursued an aggressive agenda to accomplish this mission, including: creation of groundbreaking new programs, expansion of the Community Service Program, application for national accreditation, utilization of state-of-the-art computer technology, and establishment of partnerships with local, state and federal law enforcement and social service agencies. The foundation of this effort is the philosophy that incarceration is a time of both punishment and opportunity, of hard work and rehabilitation.
