His name is Jeffery J. Anderson, but we all know him as “JJ”. Last week he ended a 21 year career with San Diego County. He retired from the San Diego County District Attorney’s Office where he was responsible for the CARE Center, one of his brainchilds for service. His career had been with the Drug Court, the Public Defender’s Office, working with two District Attorneys, and the current Office of the District Attorney, from which he retired on October 23, 2020 as the DA’s Prevention and Intervention Programs Director. The drive-by goodbye was due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which limits gatherings and social distances.

JJ said he appreciates the opportunity he had to work with committed and dedicated individuals and that he will continue to work with the community “in my own way,” he said. A number of people drove by to say goodbye and thank him for his many years of service to the community.
