ABOUT US

Thank you for taking the time to read our Orange County Sheriff’s Department 2023-2024 annual report. The theme of our report this year is “Innovate, Collaborate, Serve.” Whether providing patrol services in our contract cities and unincorporated county areas, or ensuring the safety and security of those entrusted to our care within our jails, these three tenants are woven into every aspect of the ways we serve. This annual report highlights programs and best practices tied to these primary responsibilities.

It is our privilege to serve you,
