"It is the Reserve Division’s unselfish commitment to this community that enables my office to contribute so many valued services at little to no cost to the tax payer”
…..Sheriff Bryant
The Reserve Division not only provides a much-needed service to our community, but also saves the taxpayers of Albemarle County over $600,000 annually in the process.
The Reserve Division is...
A volunteer organization of dedicated and trained citizens who support and assist the operations and duties of the Sheriff's Office.
An opportunity to be trained for and to engage in law enforcement on a professional basis.
An opportunity to serve your community by assisting in providing needed and important law enforcement services.
An opportunity to consider law enforcement work as a career.
An opportunity for those persons who are interested in law enforcement work but not as a career.
To learn more about any of our programs, join the Reserves or become a non-sworn volunteer assisting directly with a program visit our web site, send me an e-mail or give me a call. Our programs are funded through private contributions and your financial assistance is welcome. Please Contact Sheriff Bryant
