At times, Law Enforcement will be called upon to respond to an address where an individual with Special Needs may be present or in need of help. This can range from those with Autism, Down Syndrome, PTSD, and much more. We aim to protect all citizens, and we are here to serve and protect in the most professional possible way. Our Sheriff App and website provides those citizens and their family members a pathway of proactiveness by allowing you to send information directly to our dispatchers. This information is then attached to the address on file, which shows up for deputies when they are sent out in the event of an emergency. By filling out a short form, you are helping DeSoto Parish Sheriff, 911, EMS, and Fire to better understand the needs of those residents so that we are able to properly and effectively respond when a need arises. Please check out this feature in our DeSoto Parish Sheriff App, and share this post with your friends!
