PURCELLVILLE, Va. (PRWEB) March 03, 2022 - The Secure Cash and Transport Association (SCTA), a nonprofit industry association representing the vital cash-in-transit and cash servicing industries, today released a statement affirming its strong support of industry relationships with law enforcement.

The statement is as follows:

Recent headlines by some sources serve to divide, rather than unite the interests of the secure cash lifecycle. Certain ongoing media efforts about the relationship between law enforcement and what is being characterized as an armored transport company have us concerned.

The SCTAs membership comprises the largest workforce in the armored transport industry and is a vital stakeholder in any public discussion. As such we feel our voice should be heard.

As a nonprofit association established to represent the shared interests of credentialed cash handling professionals and organizations throughout North America, the SCTA remains devoted to building enduring partnerships with law enforcement and is genuinely grateful for their efforts across multiple jurisdictions every day.

The SCTAs founding members and Board of Directors proudly and unanimously affirm the importance of strong relationships with law enforcement.

The Association continues in its dedication to bringing the full spectrum of industry representatives together to engage in meaningful dialogue and actions that promote the industrys commitment to safe, secure, and legal commerce.
