Forsyth County Sheriff's Office

The Forsyth County Sheriff's Office is the third-largest, full-service Sheriff's Office in Georgia. FCSO is responsible for law enforcement services, jail management, court security, and serving the writs and papers of the courts. The Sheriff is a constitutional office and reports directly to the citizens of Forsyth and not the county government. Operating out of four primary locations, with nearly 500 employees, the men and women of the Sheriff's Office stand ready to ensure Forsyth County continues to be a safe place for our citizens and visitors. The Forsyth County Sheriff's Office proudly earned accreditation from CALEA, the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies. FCSO has also been awarded voluntary certification by the Georgia Chiefs of Police Association. As an agency, Forsyth County Sheriff's Office is committed to providing exceptional service and safety; and believes that Forsyth citizens deserve nothing less. FCSO has identified core values that drive the actions and service delivery. These core values are fundamental convictions and beliefs that the Sheriff's Office holds so firmly that they cannot be altered by circumstances. The values and how they are defined serve as FCSO's ethical compass in making decisions and taking actions. These values are referred to as "The Forsyth Way."
