"Preparing Today's Youth - ​To Protect Our Tomorrow"​

Cadet Howard
DETENTION OFFICER
When I was 18 years old I applied to be a Detention Officer after having been an Explorer/Cadet with the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office for 4 years. I knew from a young age that I wanted to be a Police Officer/Deputy Sheriff. While being a Cadet I decided that being a Detention Officer would be a good stepping stone and help me learn more about the Sheriff’s Office. My goal for the future is to become a Deputy Sheriff for the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office.
