		The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department sponsors one of the largest Explorer Programs in the United States. There are presently 20 different Explorer Posts in the Sheriff's Department.      WHAT DO SHERIFF EXPLORERS DO? Deputy Explorers perform non-hazardous law enforcement functions such as; writing crime reports, public finger printing, crowd control at civic events and parades, traffic direction, answering telephones at the complaint desk, crime prevention programs and countless other law enforcement functions. In addition, Deputy Explorers ride with Regular Deputies on Law Enforcement patrol assignments. They observe and participate in actual patrol and law enforcement operations. Explorers receive training in subjects such as community relations, leadership, criminal law, firearm safety, weaponless defense and police procedures. Exploring is a great way for youth to examine law enforcement as a possible career.
If you desire additional information on the Sheriff's Department Law Enforcement Explorer Program Contact the Explorer Advisor at Crescenta Valley Station at (818) 236-4019.
