Talent

Attracting and keeping top quality talent is key to a strong workforce. The heroes of the St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office should be valued, supported and encouraged each and every day to do their best serving you.

Innovations

As a 21st century law enforcement agency we must not settle or rely on the "way it's always been." We must be willing to challenge the status quo, changing and evolving as needed to ensure efficiency and high quality service.
