Family Since 1789

The U.S. Marshals Service prides itself on being a family, providing members of the USMS the emotional backing, drive, and a set of shared values that fuel their dedication to duty. In the tough world of law enforcement, these family values act as a sturdy support system, helping deputies tackle challenges while still keeping a strong balance between work and life. It's not just personal support; the family bond also plays a vital role in passing down the values and traditions of the institution, training the next generation, and building a legacy of steadfast service. This relationship between family and culture of the USMS is also crucial in shaping a deputy U.S. marshal's professional identity and sense of purpose.
