June is National Safety Month, and public safety is about more than just security—it is about preparing for a safer tomorrow.

For this , Deputy Barb is highlighting the impactful work happening every day behind the scenes at the Adult Detention Center. Our deputies manage vital programs, including comprehensive medical care and critical reentry resources, all designed to help individuals succeed after their time with us.

By focusing on professional management and reducing recidivism, we aren’t just managing a facility—we are protecting the future of our community.

The first nice day in about a week, and several of our deputies took advantage of some sunshine liberty!
St. Anthony Academy, Fairfax, VA invited members of the Fairfax County Sheriff’s Office to join in during their Field Day festivities. The kids peppered the deputies with questions, and the deputies had fun playing games alongside.
Here’s to a happy and safe summer. Thank you for having us along today. We look forward to another round of Tug-O-War!

Fairfax County Sheriff’s Office joined community members, veterans, and public safety partners at American Legion Post 177 on Oak Street for the 2026 Memorial Day Ceremony on Monday.

Representing our agency were Deputy Maxime Casteleyn, Master Deputy Sheriff Jahan Brown, and 2nd Lt. William Redfern. Together, they stood to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country.

Sponsored by VFW Post 8469 and American Legion Post 177, the annual event featured patriotic music, reflective tributes, and a powerful address by retired U.S. Army Lt. Gen. J.D. Johnson.

Fairfax County Sheriff’s Office forever remains committed to honoring our fallen heroes and are profoundly grateful to the veterans who continue to serve within our agency and throughout Fairfax County. Thank you to VFW Post 8469 and American Legion Post 177 for hosting this moving tribute. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten, and we remain forever grateful for the freedoms they helped protect.

we are wrapping up National Mental Health Awareness Month. Last week Sheriff Stacey Kincaid participated on a panel during the 10-year anniversary celebration of Diversion First. Mediated by Lisa Potter, Fairfax County’s Diversion Initiatives Director, the panel shared what inspired them in the very beginning, what keeps them motivated on this path, and what they vision the next 10 years to bring.
Congratulations to the first 10 years…can’t wait to see what comes in the next 10!
