Community resource deputies
The Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office has designated Community Resource Deputies who are assigned to cities and areas within our jurisdiction. These deputies connect with city leaders, neighborhood associations, local businesses, and community groups to encourage stronger participation in crime reduction efforts and greater coordination to address crime-related issues. This type of community-based policing builds and maintains trust and promotes problem-solving in the communities we serve.

Comfort dog Burton
Comfort dog Burton is a long-haired German Shepherd. He and his handler respond to calls for service to relieve stress and anxiety for families, community members and first responders, attend community events, and is an overall support to our agency.
Law enforcement members face highly stressful situations daily. Studies have shown that having a comfort dog present can lower blood pressure, have a calming effect, and improve cardiovascular health.
