The Ventura County Sheriff’s Office is committed to increasing and strengthening community partnerships and utilizing technologies and evidence-based practices to enhance collaborative efforts at reducing crime and improving public safety. Sheriff Fryhoff developed and implemented his seven pillars that identify the Sheriff’s Office methods for achieving its goals in alignment with its mission, strategy, and vision. Pillar IV: Community Partnered Policing levels the playing field and gives all a seat at the table for shaping and informing how a law enforcement agency is organized and polices its communities. The job for partnering is not just for the head of the law enforcement agency, it is for everyone in the organization and for those in the community who choose to participate. By partnering more with the public, officers, and community members alike, will feel they are supported because of the relationships they form.
There are numerous facets to community engagement that help with strengthening community partnerships and align with our efforts at reducing crime and improving public safety. Some of these include:
- Follow us on social media
- Sign up for a Citizen’s Academy
- Join the Sheriff’s Reserve
- Join the Sheriff’s Posse
- Join Neighborhood Watch
- Sign up for Nextdoor
- Sign up for Nixle Alerts
- Socialize with local law enforcement at Coffee with a Cop or National Night Out events
Thank you Ventura County for engaging and supporting your Sheriff’s Office. We value and respect the relationships the Sheriff’s Office has developed with the communities we serve and look forward to finding new and innovative ways to expand that relationship.
