A message from Police Recruiter Sonia Diaz:
The Stockton Police Department takes pride in its diversified work force. Female officers play a very important role in our department. Female officers bring a unique and very beneficial style to policing. A recent study published by the National Center for Women and Policing found that one of the important aspects of women in policing is the ability to verbally de-escalate volatile situations. We want to encourage women to take the step to a great career that will bring financial independence, pride, and fulfillment.
To help encourage you, we have set up some frequently asked questions regarding childcare, shift work, physical agility, firearms, and much more. If you have any further questions please contact me at 209-937-7307 or email me at sonia.diaz@ci.stockton.ca.us
Get to know some of our female officers, ranging in years of service and rank.
