Community Relations Division


Public safety is a team effort.

The Newport News Sheriff’s Office offers crime-prevention programs, specialty services, and safety education for all ages — supporting our neighborhoods, schools, and local businesses where it matters most.

Our deputies show up every day to build real connections, keep communication open, and work alongside the community to prevent crime before it happens. The goal isn’t just enforcement — it’s trust, awareness, and safer spaces for everyone.

Because when the community is involved, safety sticks.
