“Partnering with our community should be the priority of a police agency, and you can’t do that effectively without constantly building a relationship with them,” said Elkader Police Chief Mitch Seitz. “The community needs to know we have their best interest in mind and our overall goal is to positively affect people’s quality of life.” (Submitted photo)

National Police Week has been held each year around mid-May since 1962, when President John F. Kennedy signed a proclamation designating May 15 as Peace Officers Memorial Day. The period serves not only as a time to honor those officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice, but to recognize all members of law enforcement who continue to serve and protect their communities.
