We are all volunteers and on-call 24/7, 365 days a year

We rely on the generous donations from various corporations and individuals to cover essential annual operating expenses. Team members are not compensated in anyway and typically spend $2500 of their own money the first year on the team and $500-$1000 each year after. Ventura County Sheriff’s Office covers expenses only for facilities and vehicle maintenance.

The Team is incorporated as a 501(c)(3). non-profit organization so we may accept tax-deductible donations. We also sell shirts and other items to help raise money. Download our Team Information Sheet.
