Contributions made to LEAP are used to support our organization members, in the troubled times that many of our Law Enforcement Officers (LEO) and families may face. They may also be used to celebrate achievements and assist families of fallen officers. It has been our honor to support the memorial award of Andrew Hoskins, he was an exceptional LEO brother who our department lost and keeps close t

o our hearts. We strive to give back, and support our community, events, and programs. In the past we have contributed to Hendrickson, Pflugerville, and Connally High School's Project Graduation. Yearly LEAP has contributed to Brown Santa, Blue Santa, National Night Out, Pflugerville Bike Rodeo, and the Texas Officer's Memorial.

Memorial Day is a day with one purpose. To remember.

General John A. Logan issued the proclamation establishing Decoration Day in 1868, and after World War I it was expanded from honoring Civil War casualties to honoring the American military fallen from every conflict. In 1971, Congress officially declared it a federal holiday observed on the last Monday in May. A tradition that began with flowers on graves is now observed by more than 330 million Americans each year.

Our personnel are out across the community today maintaining security so that every cemetery visit, every memorial service, and every family gathering can happen without incident. They show up on days like this because that is what this profession asks of them.

Comment below with the name of a fallen service member you are honoring today.

Peace Officer Memorial Day is observed today across the country. Flags fly at half-staff, and they should.

President Kennedy signed the law establishing this observance in 1962. Since then, more than 22,000 names have been added to the National Law Enforcement Memorial in Washington D.C., representing every line of duty death in American history. Each name belongs to someone who left behind a family that had to keep going without them.

The risk these professionals accept is real. The support we provide their families needs to be real too.

Today is Children of Fallen Patriots Day, and it is one of the more sobering dates on the calendar.

May 13 was chosen for this observance because it marks the day Arlington National Cemetery was established in 1864. That connection is intentional. The Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation estimates that approximately 25,000 children have lost a parent in the line of military duty over the last 35 years. Without support, only 20 percent of those children complete college. With the foundation's assistance, that rate rises to 91 percent.

These are children who carried a loss most people their age could not begin to understand. Many members of this association are veterans. We do not take this day lightly.

Share this post to bring visibility to the children and families still carrying the cost of military service.

This is National Police Week, and we want to make sure it means more than a hashtag.

National Police Week 2026 runs from May 11 through May 17, featuring memorial ceremonies, survivor-focused events, honor guard tributes, and community gatherings across Washington D.C

The professionals our association represents are the people who answer the call when you cannot. They miss birthdays, holidays, and milestones because the job does not stop for any of it. The ones we are honoring this week did not get to come home, and the families they left behind carry that every single day.

This week is for them. It is also for every member out on shift right now who continues their work.

If you have a first responder in your life, tell them this week you see what they do.

Share this post and help us make sure National Police Week reaches every community that needs to hear it.

Happy Mother's Day to every mother in our community and in our ranks.

The holiday has been with us longer than most people realize. In 1908, Anna Jarvis held a memorial for her mother in Grafton, West Virginia, and the idea spread so quickly that by 1914 President Woodrow Wilson signed a proclamation making it a national holiday. Today, Mother's Day is one of the highest-grossing retail holidays in the United States, generating over 35 billion dollars in spending annually according to the National Retail Federation.

The mothers in our ranks show up for this community every shift. The mothers at home supporting our members carry just as much. Both deserve more than one day of recognition. But today, we make sure they get it.

Share this post and tag a mother who deserves to be recognized today.

Happy Military Spouse Appreciation Day to every husband and wife holding down the home front.

The numbers tell part of the story. There are approximately one million active duty and reserve military spouses in this country managing households, careers, and families alongside the reality of deployment. Studies show that military spouses relocate on average every two to three years, making career stability one of the most persistent challenges they face.

Members of this association who serve in reserve components rely on that support every single day. Their spouses deserve the same recognition we give to the members themselves.

Tag a military spouse in the comments today so we can acknowledge them directly.

Cinco de Mayo is observed today, and our members are on duty making sure the community can celebrate safely.

The holiday commemorates the Mexican army's victory over the French Empire at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862. What most people do not know is that the French at the time were considered one of the most powerful military forces in the world. The victory was a major upset that changed the course of the conflict. Today it is one of the most widely celebrated cultural observances in the United States.

We are proud to serve a community as diverse and vibrant as this one.

Drop a comment below and tell us how you are celebrating today.

Happy 118th birthday to the United States Army Reserve.

What started on April 23, 1908 as a small Medical Reserve Corps of 160 doctors has grown into a federal force of approximately 172,000 trained soldiers who balance full civilian lives with full military readiness. That is not a backup plan. That is a deliberate, disciplined commitment to being ready when the country calls, without setting everything else aside to do it.

Several members of this association serve in the Army Reserve, bringing that same discipline and commitment directly into the work they do in this community every day. Two sets of responsibilities. One standard of service.

Share this post to recognize every Army Reserve soldier in your network today.

Happy Earth Day. Today is a good reminder that the parks, waterways, and open spaces we take for granted did not protect themselves.

On April 22, 1970, roughly 20 million Americans took to the streets to demand better protections for the environment. It became one of the largest civic movements in American history and directly led to the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency later that same year. Not bad for a single day.

Our members patrol and protect the public lands in this community every day, enforcing ordinances that keep these spaces clean, safe, and accessible for everyone. The trails, the water, the wildlife. It all requires people willing to show up and look after it.

Get outside today if you can. These places are worth protecting.

This week is National Work Zone Awareness Week, and it is one worth paying attention to.

The people in orange vests doing road work alongside moving traffic are someone's parent, spouse, or child. They showed up to do a job, and they deserve to go home when it is done. According to the Federal Highway Administration, there were a total of 2,261 work zone crashes in 2025 alone. Nearly every one of those tragedies involved a decision a driver made behind the wheel.

Our members are stationed in these corridors this week and every week, enforcing speed limits and keeping both drivers and road crews safe. The ask is simple: slow down, stay back, and pay attention. The orange signs are not a suggestion.

Work zones are temporary. The consequences of ignoring them do not have to be.
