Grant County Sheriff
EPHRATA, Wash.- The Grant County Sheriff’s Office went live on Facebook on Tuesday Feb. 26, using the social media site to provide information to county residents. GCSO will use social media to notify the community of road closures, significant police activity and assistance in solving crimes, as well as opening a dialog with citizens about their concerns.
“Effective 21st century policing mandates we have as much contact with the community as possible,” said Sheriff Tom Jones. “Facebook is a form of social media which will help us accomplish our goals of being the most accessible agency we can be.”
The other forms of communication the Sheriff’s Office utilizes include the Grant County government website, Nixle online notification system and community public meetings.
“I am always available to speak with our citizens, and they are welcome to use social media or they can call or email me directly,” said Jones.
Sheriff Jones can be reached at 509-754-2011 ext. 468, or via email at tjones@co.grant.wa.us. Facebook users can find the new Facebook page under Grant County Sheriff’s Office – Tom Jones, Sheriff.
