The Los Angeles County Sheriff 's Department is tasked with providing health care services to all incarcerated prisoners within a jail system which at present exceeds 18,500 inmates. Correctional Treatment Center (CTC) provides care and treatment for inmates requiring inpatient medical and or psychiatric care in this 196-bed rated medical unit located in the Twin Towers Correctional Facility in downtown Los Angeles. The inmate population is in poor health, largely due to the lifestyle choices of the inmates which often include substance abuse, violence, and living on the streets of Los Angeles. They require the same basic medical care that all residents of Los Angeles County require, including routine illness to advanced medical issues such as tuberculosis (TB), AIDS/HIV+, heart disease, diabetes, dialysis, paraplegics, and acute mental health problems. Additionally, problems associated with aging are becoming common as the jail population increasingly includes older inmates. In the wake of chronic overcrowding in the county lockups, the Sheriff 's Department has been struggling to provide adequate care for thousands of inmates, many of whom have never been treated, with illnesses ranging from tuberculosis to AIDS to schizophrenia. Reported rates of tuberculosis in jails and prisons are more than six times higher than those for the general population. Jails and prisons concentrate individuals at high risk for TB or noncompliance with therapy, including those who are

I chose to explore the Abington, Hatboro and Whitpain townships police departments’ websites for this assignment. Each department included on their website where they were located and how they could be contacted. They also included some frequently asked questions and general information about the department and how to go about reporting crime or paying tickets. Abington and Whitpain both included a “mission statement” while I was unable to find one for Hatboro. The one feature I liked about the Hatboro website is that although there wasn’t very much information, it did give the exact number of working officers and how they broke down into specific roles.

The core law enforcement agency for the county of Hillsborough, is the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office (HCSO), dating back all the way to the year 1845, right at the time when the agency was initially being formed. The Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA) made all of the necessary requirements and pulled some strings to officially authorize the Sheriff’s Office of Hillsborough County (“Hillsborough county sheriff’s office (Florida),” 2008). This not only made HCSO the first sheriff’s office in the state of Florida to be nationally accredited, but also the first in the United States to become nationally re-accredited (“Hillsborough county sheriff’s office (Florida),” 2008). The HCSO is mostly accountable and

I am honored to the opportunity to internship at the Bibb County Sheriff Department supervised by Cindy Gresham, the executive assistant of this agencies. Historically, there were two agencies ensuring public safety in Bibb County, The Bibb County Sheriff Department and the Macon Police Department. There were five attempts to consolidate the two agencies, but consolidation was unsuccessful. However in 2003, the two agencies were consolidated into one unified government formally known as the “The Bibb County Sheriff Department.” This consolidations prompted a complete reconstruction of the unified agencies. There were new policies and rankings implemented and the creation of a newly organized board. This paper will explain the mission of the agency, the types of services provided, sources of revenue, the administration and organization structure, and community resources utilized.

There are three types of law enforcement agencies, federal, state, and local. Federal agencies include the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the U.S. Secret Service, state agencies include state troopers and/or highway patrol and local law enforcement include sheriff departments, county police, and townships. Townships are the smaller division of a county with some corporate power. Townships make communities safe and pleasant places to live by communicating with the citizens and assisting them with all their needs. I am a resident of Copiague, Town of Babylon. The town of Babylon is a suburban area. Babylon is in the Police District in which 911 calls are responded to by the Suffolk County Police department. I have formed my perception of the Suffolk County Police Department by my few encounters with them.

They also are responsible for covering a busy interstate highway, three municipalities, and they work with other law enforcement agencies to protect the lives and property of each resident. They interact with the community frequently through programs that were created like: Citizens Police Academy, which is a for our residents that is taught by “certified Richmond County Sheriff’s Instructors, that allows the citizens to participate by getting involved in actual training sessions so that they can gain a broader understanding of the police function” (“Richmond County Sheriff’s”,

The specific department I have chosen to research for potential employment is the New Hampshire State Police. The primary mission of the State Police is to patrol the state’s highways, enforce the laws and regulations of the highways and motor vehicles, and regulations for the transportation of hazardous materials. The State Police are divided into six departments called “Troops”. Each one covers a geographic area of the state. They are named Troops A through F. The area covered includes each of the state's ten counties, with each Troop responsible for one or two. Additionally, there is a seventh department, Troop G, that has the role of enforcing the laws governing the operation of school buses and commercial vehicles and the operation of car dealerships and vehicle inspection stations.

Throughout my life growing up in Polk County whenever police departments became a topic of conversation, the best department in the area would always be Lakeland Police department. Now that it is my turn to start looking for jobs in law enforcement, the Lakeland Police department was top priority for me. There are many different qualities that this department holds that make it an extremely substantial department to work for. Some of these qualities are stability and high standards set for officers. Some qualities that I could bring to the department are determination and Integrity. The meshing between these qualities is what would make me a great police officer at the Lakeland Police Department.

I have over twenty-eight years of service in education. I have served as teacher, assistant principal, principal, director, assistant superintendent, and interim superintendent during my time as an educator. Although I have been in a variety of educational roles, none have been as rewarding as my last six years in Fluvanna. I have worked hard and with sincere passion to get to know the community and staff, so I am better equipped to assist with concerns or issues. I have forged partnerships with the Board of Supervisors and the County Administrator. I have attended multiple meetings throughout Fluvanna over the years with the Chamber of Commerce, Friends of Fluvanna, Rotary, and other civic based organizations. I know many individuals in local law enforcement and I am proud to be able to call the Fluvanna Sheriff a friend. I feel the relationships I have established through my tenure are vital to my future success should I be chosen

I would like to request consideration for a position in the Custody Business Operations Division. I have been working for the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office since 2013. Since then I have worked at 4th Avenue Jail and Estrella. I am currently working at Inmate Medical Services in the Mental Health Unit at Lower Buckeye Jail. Sgt. Stevens A7784 is my current supervisor. I would appreciate the opportunity to continue to grow and learn more Custody Business Operations, as I further my career with Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office. I have an excellent work ethic. I am self-motivated and very detail oriented. I have experience in supervising teams and completing assignments to deliver results. I require minimal supervision and can multitask to

The County of Palm Beach, Florida feels that the government could make better assessments when it comes down to the local interests in their community. They want to make sure they’re handling their own personal affairs locally rather than the state being involved. Thus; by doing this will provide the county with the equivalent of the home rules of benefit in their county. In addition; to this it will provide Palm Beach County, Florida with the home rule charter provisions this will provide the power over the county to self-govern itself and grant it its constitutional laws that govern the state of Florida.

We are currently seeking to staff to 52 sworn Officers. I believe that to get to that magic number we must expand our recruiting to people who live outside of Beaufort County (Jasper and Hampton) and may not want to sell their houses or move. We currently have 3 Officers who drive their personal vehicles to work every day. I, Officer Jimel Kenon, live in Yemasee (Hampton County), which is a 30-minute commute. Officer Jessie Olsen lives in Hardeeville (Jasper County), which is a 30-minute commute. Lastly, Officer Jarvis Lessane lives in the City of Hampton, which is an hour commute.
