NATIONAL POLICE WEEK 2026 ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

This week, we pause to honor the men and women behind the badge who serve with courage, sacrifice, and unwavering dedication to our communities.

We also remember the officers who gave their lives in the line of duty and reflect on the lasting impact they leave behind โ€” not only within law enforcement, but in the hearts of the families, friends, and communities who carry their memory forward.

We especially honor Officer Julian Keen, whose legacy continues to inspire service, strength, and commitment throughout Southwest Florida and beyond.

To all officers currently serving, thank you for your commitment to protecting our communities each day.

Respect. Honor. Remember.
