Explorer’s Post 6600

Since its inception 14 years ago, we’ve seen many young people join Harford County Sheriff’s Office Explorer’s Post 6600, but nobody has dedicated the time that Alissa Cecchini has. Our longest-tenured Explorer ever, Alissa joined Post 6600 in April 2014, and now she is aging out of the Program. But that’s not where her HCSO journey ends!
Originally a member of the C. Milton Wright High School Criminal Justice Club, Alissa joined Post 6600 with the goal of becoming a Police Officer. Eventually, she was hired as one of our first Cadets, and now she works as the Forensic Video Analyst in our Criminal Investigations Division!

While working in Post 6600 she spent hundreds of hours doing community service, attended two National Law Enforcement Exploring Conferences, and was part of the 1st place Explorer Post in competition at Purdue University.

Last night Sheriff Gahler, Colonel Davis, and Youth and Community Services Coordinator Stephen Thomas recognized Alissa for her dedication to the Harford County Sheriff’s Office. Her path is the model for how the Criminal Justice Clubs, Explorer Program, and Cadets can develop a young person’s interest in Law Enforcement, and turn it into a successful career!

Congratulations Alissa!
