Chaplaincy & Assistance Services

Standing with the HCSO family through life's hardest moments.

The Chaplaincy & Assistance pillar of the Personnel Support Division walks with HCSO personnel and their families through grief, crisis, and the everyday weight of the profession. Whether providing spiritual care at the scene of a critical incident, supporting a family after a line-of-duty death, or simply being present when someone needs to talk, this pillar reflects the Sheriff's Office's commitment to caring for its people in every season of life.

Our chaplains and family assistance team serve HCSO employees, retirees, and their families, and they are available regardless of faith tradition or background.
