175 years of service to our community. Thank you to all the women and men that have served our county.

175 years ago, the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Office was established.

Our county has changed. Law enforcement has changed. But the commitment to serving and protecting this community has endured through every generation.

Honoring 175 years of service. ⭐

We would like to thank our members and sponsors for your donations to the Foundation. Because of your charity, the Foundation was able to pay for the flowers and sound system for the Police Memorial at yesterday's ceremony.
We really couldn't have done it without you.
