Message from Sheriff Ed Gonzalez:
Today, we welcomed 21 new teammates into our family. With family and friends present, 21 cadets graduated to the rank of Harris County Sheriff’s Office Detention Officer. I wish all of you the best, and I know that you will be surrounded by the best leaders and teammates. Serve with honor, and live up to the words on your patch,
Pride of Texas
. See the sights from today’s graduation below!
Recently, we’ve ramped up the Harris County Sheriff’s Office’s presence on social media. As the third largest Sheriff’s Office in the nation, I think our digital footprint should be as large as our agency. Our patrol districts have launched their own Twitter accounts to push out updates in their respective jurisdictions. Below, you’ll see the great work that our patrol deputies do and how we are now sharing this good work with each district’s constituents. The more our community gets to know the people who are serving them, the better.
As the weather continues to get colder, we should be mindful of those who aren’t fortunate enough to have shelter during these upcoming colder months. I’m proud to say our Homeless Outreach Team (H.O.T.) is dedicated to helping that vulnerable population. Below, you’ll see H.O.T. in action, in this case, transporting individuals to the resources they need.
As always, I am eternally grateful for the great work everyone does. In all units and factions of our agency, all of you are dedicated to serving the residents of Harris County, and I couldn’t be more proud of everyone for that. God bless all of you, and God bless the Harris County Sheriff’s Office.
