Law Enforcement Resources

In October 1962, President John F. Kennedy designated May 15 of each year as Peace Officers Memorial Day to honor the Federal, State, and municipal officers who die or are disabled in the line of duty. He also designated the week in which Peace Officers Memorial Day falls as National Police Week. This year, National Police Week was commemorated May 10-16, 2009. Visit the National Police Week 2009 site to learn about its history and to view additional information.
