Clayton Police Department
Our Mission
Welcome to the official page of the Clayton Police Department, where we are committed to serving and protecting the citizens of Clayton, Alabama. I am Chief Edward Hardy, and with over 30 years of law enforcement experience, along with a bachelor's degree in criminal justice and two master's degrees in criminal justice administration and counseling and psychology, I am proud to lead this dedicated team of officers.
Our mission is to maintain a safe and secure environment for all members of our community. This website is designed to foster collaboration between our department and the citizens of Clayton. We encourage you to use this platform to engage with us by uploading vital information, such as videos, audio recordings, and photographs that can assist in ongoing investigations. After each upload, the information will be directed to our secure portal, where our Investigation Division will carefully analyze it.
Additionally, the site provides an easy-to-use interface for booking calls, scheduling appointments, and addressing any questions you may have. We also offer a convenient QR-code system for quick access to these services.
Thank you for your continued support and involvement in making Clayton a safer place for all.
