AIDB Welcomes new School Resource Officer

Chase Reed smiles to the cameraChase Reed has joined the Alabama Institute for Deaf and Blind (AIDB) family as the new School Resource Officer (SRO). While the SRO is technically employed by the Talladega County Sheriff’s Office, the position is funded by AIDB.


The SRO helps protect the students and staff at AIDB by doing walk-throughs at ASB, ASD and HKS as well as working with students in the classroom and residential settings. You’ll also see Reed working in the bus line and in other settings to help ensure the safety of our students.

Reed has been in law enforcement for 10 years. Prior to joining the Talladega Sherriff’s Office a year ago, Reed worked in Elmore County and Montgomery City.
