Divisions
K–9 Division
As one of the largest correctional institutions in the northeast, and the largest
in Massachusetts, the Suffolk County Sheriff’s Department employs more than
1,000 custody and non–custody staff to help ensure the efficient and effective
operations of the Department’s two facilities – the Suffolk County House
of Correction and the Nashua Street Jail – as well as comprehensive
off–site training center.
To meet the demands required in carrying out the critical day–to–day
operations of the Department, a series of Divisions were established, each tasked
with specialized and unique functions that work in unison to continue the
Department’s primary directive – to ensure the safe care, custody and
control of our inmate and detainee population while seeking ways to reduce offender
recidivism.
