This podcast is a visit with Brazos County sheriff Wayne Dicky and WTAW's Bill Oliver.
The Brazos County sheriff's office is creating a program where volunteers will check on seniors and other vulnerable populations.
Sheriff Wayne Dicky says the idea of what is nicknamed "R-U-OK" came from commissioner Nancy Berry.
County commissioners approved during their April 18, 2023 meeting, the job description for a volunteer coordinator.
Dicky said volunteers will be asked to call residents living outside of city limits at least one time a week.
When someone does not answer a call or says they need help, Dicky said a deputy can be sent to follow up.
Once the county program is up and running, Dicky said "then I think it would make good sense that we would have conversations with the cities about expanding it into an eventual joint operation."
