Community Volunteers

The Whatcom County Sheriff’s Office recognizes the valuable resource of partnering with community volunteers to assist us in effectively serving the community. We welcome citizens who wish to donate their time serving their community through the Sheriff’s Office.

Sheriff Department Volunteer Information


For more information than what is available here on our web site, contact the volunteer service coordinator during regular office hours at (360) 676-6650 or send e-mail to Al Cheesman at Acheesma@co.whatcom.wa.us

Or you can simply come into our office and pick up a volunteer application. Applications are processed for a background investigation and after an interview and successful completion of a polygraph examination, volunteers are allowed to serve in different divisions within the Sheriff’s Office, depending on interests or greatest need.

Other volunteer activities are also available through the Sheriff's Office and the Division of Emergency Management:
