Provide professional, dedicated police service in partnership with our community.

Core Values

SERVICE

Service is our unwavering commitment to meeting the needs of our community with dignity, bravery, and compassion. There is no call we will not answer, there is no mission we will not undertake. We are the Sarasota Police Department and we are here to help.

PROFESSIONALISM

Professionalism is our promise to perform our calling with competence, respect, integrity, morality, and accountability in every action we perform and in every duty we carry out. It reflects the standard by which we will conduct ourselves both on AND off duty.

DEDICATION

Dedication is our steadfast commitment to our mission, our community, and one another demonstrated by perseverance, reliability, and absolute devotion to our mission.
