Our Mission is Community!
Community Resource Deputies supplement our Patrol Services by addressing quality of life issues through education and training, crime prevention and intervention, specialized patrol services, and building community partnerships with our residents, our local businesses, and our other neighborhood-serving agencies. They also run our Neighborhood Watch and Business Watch Programs, our Authority Letter Program, our Restorative Policing Program, our Active Shooter Response Training Program, our Sheriff’s Volunteer Team Program, our Explorer’s Program, and our Citizen’s Academies – just to name a few. If you are interested in joining one of these programs, if you are seeking any of our offered education and training, and/or if you are interested in gaining a partnership with the Santa Barbara Sheriff’s Office, please contact our CRDs at their corresponding assignment locations or by calling Sheriff’s HQ at 805-681-4100.

PLEASE WATCH: Train Safety PSA 🛤️
↔️ Always look both ways. Trains can come from any direction, at any time.
🚧 Only cross railroad tracks at a designated crossing. Designated crossings are marked by a sign, lights or a gate.
🚦If lights are flashing or the gate is down at a railroad crossing, wait for the train to pass completely and the gate to go back up before crossing. It is never okay to try and beat the train.
🚶🏽♀️Don’t be tempted to walk on or along the tracks. Trains are at least three feet wider than the tracks on either side.
🚆A train can take up to a mile to stop. By the time the locomotive engineer sees someone or something on the tracks ahead; it is too late to stop.
