Welcome to our website...

We would like to welcome you to visit the Contra Costa County Office of the Sheriff web site.

The members of the Sheriff’s Office have provided our communities with over 150 years of dedicated service. Our motto, “Community Policing Since 1850…” sums up our philosophy. No matter what challenges face us in the future, the citizens of Contra Costa County may be assured that the quality of life they now enjoy will be protected with dedication, honor, courage and integrity by the men and women of the Sheriff’s Office.

 We hope you enjoy browsing through our web site. You will find historical facts about the Office of the Sheriff along with up-to-date information regarding our many programs and career opportunities. Remember, this business of public safety is a partnership; Deputy Sheriffs and citizens must work together closely. This web site and its contents are designed to facilitate that partnership.
