The Cook County Sheriff's Office has recently shared activities and greetings via their social media account. Their posts encompass various outreach endeavors and a festive message.

On April 19, 2025, the Sheriff's Office announced their proactive efforts in recruitment, attending multiple career fairs across several Illinois towns including Chicago, Palatine, South Holland, Rosemont, River Grove, Palos Hills, Bartlett, and Calumet City. Their focus was on informing students and community members about "various Sheriff's Office career opportunities."

On April 20, 2025, the office extended festive cheer with an Easter message, hoping "everyone an eggcellent Easter filled with love and laughter!" accompanied by hashtags #Easter and #CookCountySheriff.

Later that day, the Sheriff's Office described their participation in the First Steps Preschool's touch-a-truck event. They highlighted the opportunity to engage young students with tours of their vehicles and provide education on emergency 911 use. The event, tweeted as "Tots and Trucks. Name a better duo," was reportedly an enjoyable experience for both the children and the Sheriff's staff.

Cook County, as part of its commitment to community engagement, continues to blend recruitment with local involvement and educational outreach.
