What We Do

The McHenry County Sheriff’s Office houses and operates a county-wide Police Social Work Division. This unit is made up of a Program Director, a Clinical Supervisor, and currently 4 Police Social Workers. The primary goal of the Police Social Workers (PSW) is to bridge the gap between law enforcement and social services in McHenry County by connecting citizens with mental health resources and long-term resolutions, in order to alleviate the obligation of law enforcement’s response to mental health related calls for service.
