IACLEA is pleased to announce that D. Stafford & Associates (DSA) has renewed its support of the Association, extending its Corporate Partnership agreement through the end of 2022.

In addition to general support, D. Stafford & Associates sponsors the IACLEA Accreditation Program, which for more than a decade has assisted campus public safety agencies in charting a roadmap to excellence and continuous improvement.

“D. Stafford & Associates has been an enthusiastic and steady supporter of IACLEA and its cornerstone Accreditation Program for many years,” said IACLEA President Patrick Ogden, Associate Vice President & Chief of Police at the University of Delaware. “They are wholeheartedly committed to campus public safety initiatives and provide solid strategic assistance to numerous IACLEA member agencies seeking to improve management of their operations. This includes, for U.S. institutions, guidance to complying with the Clery Act,” he added.

D. Stafford & Associates is well known for its work in areas of federal compliance with the Clery Act and Title IX, but DSA has also conducted organizational and physical security assessments of campus police and public safety agencies. On March 25, 2021, DSA launched a new Procedural Justice Service that includes Procedural Justice Assessments of campus police and public safety agencies and a Procedural Justice Training Institute.

In late September 2021, an addendum to D. Stafford & Associate’s corporate partnership was made, providing members interested in the new Procedural Justice Institute offerings additional training and cost savings. The new agreement details that each year moving forward, the initial five courses offered will be available, as well as a minimum of two new classes this year. The 2022 schedule for courses is available here.

Stafford & Associates. “We’ve been in the business of providing consulting services to campuses in North America since 1997. My staff and I are proud to continue supporting the campus public safety industry. To me, personally, it means the world to me to help out IACLEA members as I am a former board member and president (2003-2004) of this wonderful Association,” she added.
