Carleen Dick
Auditor
Â
I have served the Evangeline Parish Sheriff Office since July of 2007. I started my career as a 911 dispatcher serving Capt. Reed as her assistant TAC Officer. I now serve the department as the Probation and Sex Offender Supervisor. I work with people who have been convicted of crimes, but were not sentenced to jail time. Instead, these offenders are given a probationary period where they must comply with all requirements set forth by the judge. I work to rehabilitate my offenders by promoting law-abiding behavior. I use a building block approach because change does not happen overnight. I instill accountability, and clear ground rules are established. My goal is to create the right change.
