The Fauquier County Sheriff's Office - Chaplain Program creates a partnership with various faith-based leaders of our community to respond and assist law enforcement in providing an overall better quality of life to the citizens and communities.

The goal is that by having law enforcement and Clergy working together during times of crisis or incidents, that a more comprehensive response will be given to those in need.

The faith-based leaders will perform tasks of a more emotional, social or spiritual nature while deputies handle those tasks that are of a law enforcement nature.

The role of the Chaplain is to be the ‘balancer.’  The Chaplain is to provide support for sheriff’s office personnel and civilians in their needs. Chaplains are there to provide appropriate assistance, advice, comfort, counsel and referrals to those in need who may request support.
