In a time where local news media coverage seems to be disappearing, your contribution is more important than ever. While our in-depth articles are for supporting members only, we won’t put our core news content behind a paywall, because we believe access to news should be democratized, instead of access for only those who can afford it.
But keeping the lights on and taking the fight to local accountability takes resources. Your monthly subscription directly funds our public records requests, website hosting, and time spent analyzing local government and events so you don’t have to.
We are the only newsroom in Washington County with facts-first focus, locally owned, independent, while keeping our core news content free. Will you help us keep it that way?
Since its founding in 1983, the program has graduated over 21,000 law enforcement professionals, many of whom have advanced to key leadership roles within their respective agencies. LT. Strong’s achievement reflects both her dedication to professional growth and the Frederick Police Department’s commitment to fostering strong leadership within its ranks.
