Advisory

Camera Registry program for safer neighborhoods

You can help the Kern County Sheriff’s Office fight and solve crime by being our digital eyes and ears. Kern County residents can partner with us as part of our voluntary civilian camera registry. Surveillance cameras already keep your homes and businesses safer; this program gives you the chance to keep your entire neighborhood safer.

Register your camera with us so that in the event of a crime in your neighborhood, we know you have video footage. The information will help our deputies contact you quickly and identify suspects who commit crimes. Other law enforcement agencies across the U.S. are using similar programs.

HOW IT WORKS
Registration: On kernsheriff.org, you can give us your contact information and tell us what kind of surveillance system you have. Again, this is all voluntary.
Confirmation: Once you register, you will get a confirmation email initially, and then annually.
Contact: You will only be contacted again if a crime happens in your area. Sheriff’s Office personnel will request a copy of your surveillance video that may help in an investigation.
