Graham Police Department

Jurisdiction and responsibilities

Graham Police serves the City of Graham, Alamance County’s county seat. It is separate from the Alamance County Sheriff’s Office even though both organizations maintain offices in Graham. The municipal police page describes a combination of patrol response, criminal investigations, professional standards, and support services.

How the agency is organized

Patrol is described as the department’s largest component and its principal initial-response function. Investigative work includes criminal and narcotics investigations. Professional Standards handles accreditation, recruiting, training, and outreach. Support functions include parking, records, fingerprinting, and school-resource officers. These distinctions are useful when determining whether an inquiry concerns an incident report, recruiting, an employee complaint, or an investigative follow-up.

Official records and officer resources

The official page provides a public-records request form and directs information requests through the city’s public-information contact. Separate complaint and commendation resources allow visitors to identify the appropriate administrative route. The page also links current hiring information. Consult the current published form rather than assuming that every category of record follows the same release process.
