Allie Auk, a junior in the Corvallis FFA chapter, describes her home and community development SAE involving ride-alongs with the Ravalli County Sheriff's Department. Through day and night shifts, she gains practical experience in law enforcement, builds community relationships, and learns about real-world policing while considering potential careers in law and law enforcement. She emphasizes how her SAE connects agriculture to community safety, as officers enforce agricultural laws, and encourages others to pursue SAEs based on their passions and interests.
