National Police Week is about more than the names engraved on memorial walls. It is about the lives behind those names, the families who continue carrying their memory, the agencies that still feel their absence, and the calling carried forward by every officer who wears the badge today.

We honor the law enforcement officers who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty, and we stand beside the survivors, coworkers, and loved ones who continue living with that loss long after the ceremonies and tributes have ended.
