🚔 ONLY 3 SPOTS LEFT! 🚔

After processing the applications we’ve received for the 2026 Screven County Sheriff’s Office Citizens Police Academy, we officially have 3 spots remaining!

The Citizens Police Academy is about more than learning what we do- it’s about building positive relationships, encouraging open communication, and strengthening the connection between law enforcement and our community.

Maybe you’ve questioned or disagreed with certain legal processes. Maybe you don’t know much about law enforcement and want to better understand how things work. Or maybe you’re just looking for something new, fun, and interactive to experience.

This academy is for you!

Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions, interact directly with law enforcement, learn more about the laws and processes that affect our community, and take part in fun, informational, hands-on activities throughout the academy.

We have 3 spots left, and once they’re filled, registration is closed!

📍 Stop by the Screven County Sheriff’s Office to pick up an application and claim one of the remaining spots.

We’d love to have you join us! 💛🖤

🇺🇸 NEVER FORGET | SEPTEMBER 11, 2001 🇺🇸

Today, the Screven County Sheriff’s Office joins our nation in remembering the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and honoring the courage of the first responders, law enforcement officers, firefighters, emergency personnel, service members, and ordinary citizens who answered an unimaginable tragedy with extraordinary bravery.

Twenty-five years have passed, but the responsibility to remember remains.

We remember those who never made it home.
We honor those who ran toward danger when others were running away.

We stand with the families who continue to carry their loss.

And we remember the unity and strength our nation showed in the days that followed.

🚨 ZERO TOLERANCE FOR SPEEDING 🚨

Four lives have been lost on Screven County roadways in the past 30 days. Enough is enough.

At the direction of Sheriff Norman Royal, deputies will be taking a zero-tolerance approach to speeding. If you are stopped for speeding, you will receive a citation—no warnings until further notice.

This isn’t about writing tickets. It’s about preventing another family from receiving a knock on the door that changes their lives forever.

This applies to everyone. It does not matter who you are, who you know, or where you are going.

Please slow down. Put the phone away. Wear your seat belt. Pay attention to the road.

A citation may be inconvenient. Losing another member of our community is irreversible.
