WHAT IS SHADCO?

Sheriff's Advisory Council

What is a SHADCO?

The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office (the JSO) has established Sheriff's Advisory Councils (SHADCOs) throughout the city to build partnerships and understandings between the JSO and residents of Jacksonville, and to develop community-based strategies for reducing criminal activity and improving police service.
SHADCOs compliment Neighborhood Watches, which citizens can use to exchange crime information and request police resources. There are usually three SHADCOs in each of the city's six zones (one for each sector within each zone), for a total of seventeen SHADCOs city-wide.


What are the city's six zones?

The city's zones are numbered one through six, clockwise, as you look at a map of Duval County. Click on the map below to view the JSO zone maps, or click here for more information about each zone.



What is SHADCO-F?

Zone 2 (the Greater Arlington area) is home to approximately 180,000 residents across three sectors (sectors D, E, and F) and almost 76 square miles -- all served by approximately 140 police officers. Within Sector "Foxtrot", sub-sector F-1 covers the Fort Caroline area, sub-sector F-2 covers the Intercostal area, and sub-sector F-3 covers portions of Mayport.
SHADCO-F is the Sheriff's Advisory Council for Zone 2, Sector F (including the three sub-sectors) -- roughly from Saint John's Bluff Road to Mayport Road, north of Beach Boulevard. We are a group of neighborhood representatives and volunteers that meets monthly with the JSO to exchange information and voice concerns about our area.
