The Sheriff’s Work Alternative Program (SWAP) is made up of non-violent offenders charged with DUI and other misdemeanor crimes who “swap” jail time for a community service sentence. Under the supervision of specially trained sheriff’s deputies, the crews work throughout the county on a variety of public works projects such as cleaning parks, viaducts and streets.
Offenders sentenced to SWAP must call a SWAP office within 24 hours of leaving court and register at a SWAP office within thirty days from the court date.

Documents needed to register:
- Court Order
- Picture I.D.
- Full time students must bring student I.D.
- 16 or under must have a parent or guardian with them
- No Children are permitted
- Fees are paid by money order and only accepted at the Maywood office. NO OTHER OFFICE ACCEPTS MONEY. Offender fees and work schedule will be reviewed at time of registration.
