Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Summit County is one of the most diverse counties in the State of Ohio. Fostering a diverse, welcoming, equitable, and inclusive environment is a top priority of Sheriff Fatheree and the Summit County Sheriff’s Office. 

We are creating an inclusive environment and culture so that employees are respected and appreciated, have equal access to workplace opportunities, feel a sense of belonging, and are compensated appropriately. To achieve these ends, the Sheriff’s Office is committed to on-going training, evaluation of practices, and policies to ensure that everyone who works for, or interacts with, the Sheriff’s Office is treated with dignity and respect.
