Make a Difference

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.
