About OCDSA
For over 55 years, the Oakland County Deputy Sheriff's Association has been the voice of law enforcement professionals, advocating for fair treatment, better working conditions, and the resources our members need to serve effectively.
What The OCDSA Does
The Oakland County Deputy Sheriff's Association represents the interests of the over 750 men and women who serve the public as employees of the Oakland County Sheriff's Office. The Association acts as a bargaining agent to secure fair wages, hours and working conditions, as a representative for employees in disciplinary matters, and as a means to foster professional, charitable and fraternal relationships amongst our members and the community.
OCDSA Family Benevolent Fund
The Benevolent Fund's primary focus is to provide temporary assistance with meeting daily subsistence expenses and covering medical and prescription costs that exceed insurance coverage due to serious illness, accidents, or the death of the primary source of family income. The fund also supports members experiencing financial hardship following natural disasters.
