The Santa Barbara County Deputy Sheriff’s Association made a donation to the Veterans Stand Down of Santa Barbara. This is an organization that helps men and women, who have served in our armed forces, with various services. The DSA is proud to sponsor this worthwhile organization that helps veterans with the following: access to health services, substance abuse recovery, finding employment and many other services.

We are lucky to be able to work with such awesome organizations in this county. One of our longest relationships is with the Special Olympics Southern California, Santa Barbara County. Our membership was honored to make a donation and run in the Torch Run the past two days. Thank you to all who support this great organization!

Once again this year the SBCDSA membership was honored to participate in the Santa Barbara Special Olympics Polar Plunge. Not only did we plunge but we were able to donate to this awesome organization! We are so proud of all of our local athletes.

Today, Sergeant Scherbarth of the SBCDSA was able to stop by, do a little Q&A and spend some time with the kids. We were also honored to deliver a check from our membership to help with the repairs.

The DSA is proud to sponsor Spartatroniks to support and continue to encourage the young minds of our future. We wish them luck during their competition season, and we look forward to their success
