Vance County Sheriff Curtis Brame is inviting any interested resident to become a member of the N.C. Sheriffs’ Association.
In response to the number of people who want to help law enforcement agencies and create a stronger partnership to fight crime, Brame issued a statement Thursday to promote membership in the 501c(3) association.
Membership applications will be mailed out to join the voluntary program, which helps to fund technical support and training for sheriffs and deputies, legislative support on key criminal justice issues and support scholarships at colleges and universities in the state.
Individual memberships are $25 a year; businesses can join for an annual fee of $50.
New members will receive a thank-you letter, a membership card, a bumper sticker, window decal, a 2024 stick-on calendar, member-only discounts and a subscription to the association’s newsletter, The North Carolina Sheriff. Businesses will receive the same materials, plus a wall plaque to display. Automobile tags and tag frames are available to members for an additional cost for each item ordered.
The association was founded in 1922 as a way for individuals to show their support for local law enforcement officers and to help sheriffs and deputies protect the lives and property of the citizens they serve.
