RCMP Constable Sarah Marchildon-White on Serious Crimes, Rural Realities & Supporting Women in Public Safety

In this authentic and real episode of Sirens, Slammers, and Service, host Nikki Cloutier sits down with RCMP Constable Sarah Marchildon-White, a proud 11-year veteran of the force who is now serving in Alberta’s Serious Crimes Branch.

Sarah opens up about her early years working in rural Alberta and the community of Maskwacis, where frontline policing brought both incredible challenges and unforgettable moments. From unpredictable shifts to community connection, she doesn’t hold back on what life is really like behind the badge in rural detachment life.

Now working on some of the province’s toughest files, Sarah talks about the transition into the Serious Crimes Branch and what it takes to do the work with integrity, empathy, and grit.

We also explore Sarah’s involvement with Alberta Women in Public Safety (AWIPS) — a dynamic organization committed to empowering and supporting women across law enforcement, corrections, conservation, fish and wildlife and more. She shares how AWIPS is creating real change, why it matters, and how you can get involved.
