Get Involved
The membership of the NvSCA are passionate about what we're doing. With the challenges facing law enforcement on a daily basis, we look to employ the best personnel possible within our respective agencies and to be on the forefront of public safety to the people we serve.
The backbone of each agency are the volunteers who support the vision and the mission of public service. We can help you become a part of that mission in your community by volunteering with your local law enforcement agency.
