The City of Santa Clarita was founded in 1987, and since then public safety has been a huge priority.
Santa Clarita is one of the safest cities of its size in the country.
Public safety has always been a priority of the City Council since the City’s inception. Residents and visitors alike are provided a high level of protection and law enforcement on City streets.
The City of Santa Clarita provides many public safety programs such as:
- The STAR Program provides anti-drug and life choice education to all elementary school students.
- The School Resource Deputy Program ensures that each high school has a full-time deputy sheriff assigned to local campuses.
- The City’s COBRA Team includes a sergeant and six detectives who work exclusively to combat juvenile crime, reduce gang crime, and increase anti-graffiti efforts.
- The VIDA (Vital Intervention and Directional Alternatives) Program is a highly successful, intensive 16 week program designed to help “at risk” youth through the use of a weekend academy that promotes respect, citizenship, and solid “life choices”.
- The STTOP (Sheriff’s Teen Traffic Offender Program) is designed to intervene when teen drivers display poor judgment or dangerous driving behavior with both follow-up and education.
- The CIT (Community Interaction Team) consists of one sergeant and four deputies and is responsible for proactively addressing quality of life issues in local City neighborhoods.
