Junior Deputy Program & Community Outreach Activities

The City of Vista will utilize its FY2023 Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) award to fund the Junior Deputy Program and the Academia de Alguacil. The Vista Sheriff Department's Junior Deputy Academy (JDA) is a 12-week character building program for youth between 10 and 16 years. Academia de Alguacil is a five-week Sheriff's Academy delivered in Spanish. Funds from the grant will help support the implementation of programs by supporting overtime costs for Sheriff personnel and promotional and educational materials.
