Sheriffs desiring to enhance the service provided to our citizens
originally organized the Oklahoma Sheriffs' Association in early
statehood. The Oklahoma Sheriffs' Association primary goal is to
support the efforts of Oklahoma's 77 Sheriffs. The OSA is a
non-profit association registered with the Oklahoma Secretary of
State as a 501 (c)(3) corporation under Internal Revenue Service
rules. The association has four classifications of membership
Active, Associate, Honorary, and Business. In its efforts to solicit
memberships the OSA does not solicit by phone. If you should receive
a phone call from an organization representing the OSA contact your
local Sheriff or the OSA. Furthermore we respect the privacy of our
members and we do not sell rent or exchange our membership list.
ACTIVE MEMBERSHIP
Active members are comprised of Sheriffs and
staff
throughout the state. As voting members our active membership helps
direct the activities and efforts of the OSA by electing its
governing body and voting on important issues at the Annual
Conference. Membership dues are paid in January of each year. Dues
are based on county population and include payment for the Sheriff,
Undersheriff, Deputy, Jail Administrator, Detention Officers,
Reserve Deputy, Chaplains and Clerical Support.
