  • Introduction

    The San Diego County Sheriff’s Department Senior Volunteer Program, established in 1994, allows contributing to the community by collaborating with first responders. Your role includes assisting with vacation checks, welfare checks, and crime prevention. Additionally, you may be called upon to respond to accident scenes, where you provide support directing traffic. Effective radio communication is crucial, and this guide equips you with various codes and procedures. It also serves as a convenient tool for documenting your activities.
