SHERIFF’S ADVISORY COUNCIL

Supporting the mission, supporting our community W e are fortunate to have the support of the Orange County Sheriff’s Advisory Council (OCSAC) to enhance the way we train, serve our communities and engage with residents. Every year, these dedicated members of our community raise funds to support programs that would not otherwise be funded. This year, we saw the opening of the Mobile Pistol Range, offering a transient space for deputies to more efficiently complete state-required training. OCSAC also provided Red Ribbon wristbands for Orange County, reinforcing the department’s drug education and prevention programs. Mainstays in the OCSAC-supported events for the year are the Medal of Valor and the Orange County Peace Officers’ Memorial. Medal of Valor recognizes the exemplary achievements of personnel, sharing stories of bravery, courage and dedication. The Peace Officers’ Memorial brings together the Orange County community to honor and remember the county’s 54 fallen peace officers. OCSAC also looks ahead, raising funds for department needs of the future. This year, the much-anticipated Shoot with the Sheriff event raised thousands of dollars to go toward future needs. Donors joined Sheriff Don Barnes for lunch and law enforcement demonstrations, followed by a trip to our tactical range.
