MPACT Coordinator
MPACT is Marion Police And Community Together. It was officially established as an active program in March of 2016.
In 2025, Ofc. Caleb Rector took over as the MPACT Coordinator from Lt. Ed Brown. Although Ofc. Rector is responsible for the day to day operations of MPACT and ensuring that we are meeting our established goals and maintaining an upward trajectory with our community partnership, we could not accomplish this without an “all in” mentality throughout the department. Our officers have continued to embrace the MPACT ideology which is perhaps most important. We continually receive accolades from the public by card, email or on Facebook mentioning some “above and beyond” act by one of our officers.
Ofc. Rector began with the Marion Police Department on June 10, 2019. He joined us from the Marion County Sheriff’s Office were he was a dispatcher for two years. Caleb is a graduate of Pleasant High School where he played football and ran track. He graduated in 2015 and attended and played football at Ashland University for one year before attending the Marion Technical College police academy. He graduated from the academy in May of 2019.
