Good News! The Return of our Sheriff's Dept. Service Center

A huge and very warm thank you to our local neighbors and neighborhood watch members who have already volunteered to help staff the reopening of our local neighborhood Sacramento Sheriff's Dept. Service Center. After months of delays, the Dewey Service Center is finally open and ready to help out citizens in need.

The center will be open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays and Fridays, and till 7:00 p.m. On Wednesdays. These limited hours may be extended in the future, depending on financial and staffing resources. The center is located in the Safeway shopping center at Madison and Dewey, 5485 Dewey, suite 235, between the tanning salon and the dry cleaners.

Currently the center is still working out a few bugs, and has limited capabilities. The phones and computers are not hooked up, but sheriff's officials are working on it. So for now, the center is open for walk-ins only.

Sworn deputies and other sheriff's officials will be on hand until the center is in full working order. The center is staffed with trained volunteers and eventually will be operated by volunteers. Officers will come and go and also a special sheriff's unit working on the area's homeless will also use the center temporarily.

The center serves Carmichael, Fair Oaks and Orangevale. The center is an information and referral center putting people, their needs, and problems in touch with the appropriate agencies. Crime reports can also be filed there. 

If you are interested in participating as a volunteer, or are just incredibly thankful (like me!) that we have a local connection again to our excellent law enforcement, please stop by and let the staff and officers know. 

Three cheers for our Service Center!!
