National Police Week is observed annually during the week of May 15th to honor law enforcement officers who have sacrificed their lives or sustained injuries while performing their duties. This observance serves as a time for remembrance and support for those dedicated to protecting others.

The event highlights the significant contributions made by law enforcement personnel across the nation. Each day, officers don their uniforms without knowing what challenges they might face. They respond to a call for public service that is both demanding and often underappreciated.

Communities are encouraged to take a moment during this week to acknowledge the efforts of local law enforcement officers. A simple expression of gratitude can make a meaningful impact.

"Every day our officers put on their uniforms, not knowing what the day will hold."

"They have answered a call to public service that is demanding and often unappreciated."

"Take time out of your day to acknowledge the law enforcement officers in our community. A simple 'thank you' can go a long way."
