Be The Change
Every day, Washington County Sheriff’s Office deputies are making a change in the community. Some of us knew from a young age that serving our community was our calling. Some of us were inspired by law enforcement and the calling came later. No matter how we got here, we know where we want to be.
We want to be the Change Makers of Washington County.
We’ve seen how far kindness can go, and that a positive interaction can make a lasting impression. Each of these interactions inspires change, and we see that change in the community members we serve. We value every “thank you,” and know that the opportunity to positively impact other’s lives is rewarding and unforgettable.
We lead with respect and an understanding of our responsibility to make a change. When you join Washington County Sheriff’s Office, you go beyond serving the community. You can be a Change Maker.
Be the Change. Join WCSO.
Change Makers
“If I positively affect one person each day or each week,
then I’m a Change Maker.”

“After being ‘car jacked’ in South Africa, we immigrated to the US. I vowed to do my part so that other people do not have to experience the same trauma as what I did. Feeling safe and secure in your home and home environment is something that is taken for granted. I give thanks daily for being so fortunate to experience this freedom. I wanted to give something back to my community.”
