Tennessee Constables Association
The Tennessee Constables Association, established in 1976, is dedicated to preserving the office of Constable and providing training to Constables across the state. They offer resources and a directory to help citizens find a Constable in their county, and Constables are citizen-elected, sworn, bonded conservators of the peace with full powers of arrest.
Constables provide additional law enforcement services to supplement the Sheriff's Office and Police Departments, including civil and criminal process service, emergency response, home security checks, traffic enforcement, and more. They do not receive a salary but are compensated for specific services, and they adhere to a strict Code of Ethics. To become a Constable, individuals must qualify with their local election commission and obtain a petition signed by constituents in their electoral district.
