Overview

The Chesapeake Sheriff’s Auxiliary Deputy Corps is comprised of a group of volunteers that are dedicated to serving the citizens of Chesapeake. They are individuals that have one thing in common…dedication, professionalism, and a strong sense of community service in their hearts. Members are accepted into the Auxiliary Deputy Corps after they complete the application process and a background check. During their first six months they must complete a prescribed course of training and become certified by the training officer or their representative. Members are sworn in after six months of probation, completion of the training course, and upon the recommendation of the Auxiliary Major and Sheriff’s Office Auxiliary Corps Coordinator. All members will be required to attend and pass a DCJS Auxiliary Deputy Academy when offered.
