| The Ventura County Sheriff’s Office is excited to announce the launch of its Community Engagement Program, a significant initiative aimed at strengthening a stronger partnership between law enforcement and the communities we serve. This program is committed to enhancing public safety through collaboration, innovative technologies, and evidence-based practices. Under the leadership of Sheriff Jim Fryhoff, the Sheriff's Office has developed and implemented a strategic framework known as the "Seven Pillars." These pillars are designed to align the Sheriff's Office's mission, strategy, and vision with practical approaches to reducing crime and improving public safety. At the heart of these pillars is Pillar IV: Community Partnered Policing. This pillar is dedicated to creating an inclusive environment where all community members are given a voice in shaping and influencing how law enforcement operates. The approach ensures that the job of partnering is not restricted to the leadership but involves every member of the organization and the community. To facilitate this partnership, the Sheriff's Office will be implementing a new method to engage with the public more effectively. Community members will now have easier access to share their safety concerns and seek clarification on both new and existing policies and laws. We invite everyone to participate by visiting our website at venturasheriffs.org. Once there, click on the "Community Engagement" section to express your interest in organizing a gathering or event. A department member will respond promptly to coordinate your request. We offer various ways for the community to engage with us, including:
