Fixin’ San Mateo County (FxSMC) is a local grassroots organization working to enact effective civilian oversight of the County Sheriff’s Office. To that end, we are:
Our Goal
Establishment of effective civilian oversight of the Sheriff’s Office and creation of an Inspector General in San Mateo County
We believe the conduct and administration of our law enforcement should reflect the shared values of our community. Transparency and accountability benefit both citizens and members of the Sheriff’s Office. It reduces the risk of costly liability to the county and its taxpayers by identifying and addressing issues and preventing problems.
Fixin’ San Mateo County is a California 501(c)(4) organization.
