Johnston Police Department

We extend gratitude and appreciation to all the admins who keep us on track here at the Johnston Police Department. Working with the public and police officers involves a wide range of tasks that can change from moment to moment. Their day may include answering phone calls, scheduling appointments, drafting letters and memos, and assisting officers with data. While being organized is crucial to their success, the flexibility of our administrative staff and their ability to handle the unexpected make them invaluable to our operations. We appreciate their tremendous dedication and support of our officers and this community! #adminprofessionalsday #johnstonpolice #johnstoniowapolice
