The WSP is a professional law enforcement agency made up of dedicated professionals
who work hard to improve the quality of life as well as prevent the unnecessary
loss of life on a daily basis. This year we will continue to work aggressively
to enforce laws around the state while protecting the people of Washington
from injury and grief.
Since September 11, 2001 , the demands on state and local law enforcement
have increased dramatically. As a result, the already limited resources of
these agencies are being stretched further than ever, at a time when the country
needs every available officer out on the beat.
In many jurisdictions around the country, volunteers in the community have offered their time and skills services to law enforcement agencies. These citizen volunteers help supplement and support officers and civilian personnel by allowing them to concentrate on their primary duties. Volunteer roles may include performing clerical tasks, serving as an extra set of "eyes and ears," assisting with search and rescue activities, and writing citations for accessible parking violations.
