Re-elect Sheriff Brian Heino

I am proud to announce my candidacy for a third term as your Sheriff.

For the past 23 years, I have had the privilege of serving our community with the Flathead County Sheriff’s Office. For the last seven of those years, I have been honored to serve as your elected Sheriff in the great community I call home. Each day, I work alongside a hardworking and professional team committed to protecting and serving Flathead County. I currently serve as your Sheriff, Coroner, and Director of the Office of Emergency Services.

This is my home! My family’s roots run deep here, spanning generations. My children are being raised in this beautiful valley, and this is where I will continue to live for the rest of my life. My commitment to this community is not political — it is personal.

Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to serve in Fire, EMS, and Law Enforcement in this county. I have worked as the Search and Rescue Coordinator, a SWAT Team Leader, and served in the narcotics unit, investigations, patrol, and administration before becoming your Sheriff. Every role has prepared me to lead with experience, perspective, and dedication. As our community grows and changes, my staff and I have adapted, met new challenges head-on, and emerged stronger.

During my time as Sheriff, we have accomplished a great deal. We expanded School Resource Officers in our schools, developed a K9 program, increased training opportunities, implemented new technologies, strengthened volunteer programs, and invested in our personnel to ensure they have the tools and training necessary to serve effectively and safely.

As I seek a third term, I remain focused on moving forward. I will continue pursuing innovative ways to serve our community, advance training, and invest in our staff to meet the demands of growth in the valley. At the same time, we must preserve the values that define us. In the Flathead, we help our neighbors. We support our friends and families. We work together to keep this the best place to live.

That is why I am running for Sheriff.

I am your Sheriff — For the Flathead, and From the Flathead.
