California State Agencies

California State Agencies

These are my patches from agencies run by the State of California. In 1995, the California State Police was absorved by the California Highway Patrol. The other agencies are responsible for specific state law enforcement activities such as enforing alcohol laws (California Alcoholic Beverage Control) and providing law enforcement services for the state mental health system (California Department of Mental Health Police).

The second table below show a couple of patches that I have obtained that represent units within the California Department of Corrections.
