Welcome to the Guilford County Sheriff's Office
Sheriff Danny H. Rogers was sworn into office as the Sheriff of Guilford County on December 3, 2018. He is a native of High Point, North Carolina, and a graduate from Southwest Guilford High School. Sheriff Rogers has obtained college degrees in Theology and Criminal Justice. He has a Master of Science degree in Criminal Justice and Executive Management from Walden University. Sheriff Rogers is a 2013 Fellow member of the North Carolina Institute of Political Leadership (NC IOPL).
Sheriff Rogers has worked as a business owner and as a law enforcement officer for many years with the Guilford County Sheriff’s Office and the High Point Police Department prior to being elected.
Sheriff Rogers is very passionate about the diversity of his 600 + employees of sworn and non-sworn and civilian staff. He oversees the Greensboro Detention Center and the High Point Detention Center as well as the courthouses in both Greensboro and High Point. He oversees the safety of the citizens of Guilford County which encompasses over 500,000 citizens.
Sheriff Rogers has instituted proactive tactics to fight crime and challenging injustice and works alongside his officers to get the job done. He is committed to reducing crime, providing safe schools, streets, and neighborhoods, eliminating drug and gang activity through youth program initiatives, combating sex trafficking, reducing recidivism, addressing mental health concerns inside and outside the jails, preventing domestic violence, and requiring community policing. He is aware that the new Guilford County Jail opened its doors the same day that one of the oldest mental health hospitals in North Carolina closed its doors and because of this, incarceration in the Guilford County jail has become a storage facility for individuals in crisis. Sheriff Rogers is committed to re-entry initiatives that will reduce crime, expand services for mental illness and bring positive transformations to families.
Sheriff Rogers loves to interact with people, and he is always open to meeting with people in organizations, leadership roles, diverse ministries and faith denominations, youth groups, school children, boy scouts, and civic groups. He has initiated the accreditation process for the Guilford County Sheriff’s Office, restructured the agency to reflect the community served, implemented re-entry services aimed at reducing recidivism and has met with county leaders to explore cost saving measures to taxpayers in the rebuilding of the old jail facility. He is honored to be your Sheriff, and he asks that we work together in a collective manner to enhance the quality of life for all the citizens of Guilford County.
Sheriff Rogers was re-elected as Sheriff of Guilford County for his second term on December 05, 2022. Sheriff Rogers is dedicated to continuing his mission, in which the primary concern is the well-being and safety of the citizens of Guilford County.
It is the objective of the Guilford County Sheriff’s Office to enhance the quality of life for the citizens of Guilford County by reducing crime and the fear of crime.
