Elberton’s Police Department is guided by a philosophy of “community policing", actively engaged in educational programs and community watch groups. Officers and departments have good relationships with citizens, reducing crime and making the process of investigating crime much easier. During the 1960s when many communities were experiencing difficulties with integration, Chief George Ward brought on board John Hubbard as the City’s first African American officer. Ward and Hubbard worked together during this difficult time in our country’s history to bring fairness and community policing to every neighborhood in Elberton. Today, Elberton’s Police Department continues to bring our community together and protect residents as well as our many visitors.
