Heatstroke Prevention
July - September, 2020 / National Heatstroke Awareness Campaign
855 children have died due to vehicular heatstroke since 1998
(reference: https://www.noheatstroke.org). All of these deaths could
have been prevented.
Sadly, these are the statistics as of June 26, 2020:
• Child heatstroke fatalities in 2020: 6
• Child heatstroke fatalities in 2019: 52
• Child heatstroke fatalities in 2018: 53
• National average of child heatstroke fatalities per year since
1998: 39
Find and share campaign information for parents, caregivers,
schools and organizations, and remind everyone to Look Before You
Lock.

Hearts Behind the Badge
Mutual trust and respect are key to a strong relationship between law
enforcement agencies and the communities they serve. However, these days,
being a law enforcement officer has never been more complex. It’s difficult,
dangerous, and sometimes, thankless - but, at the end of the day, it can also be
most rewarding.
When officers are sworn in, they take an oath to uphold the law, and to protect
and serve their community. As first responders, officers are aware of the
dangers they may face when walking into an unknown situation - that each step
can mean life or death for themselves or someone else - but they also
understand that it is the job they signed up to do.
Along with the risks of the job comes the power to enact positive change in the
community. Each shift brings new opportunities for law enforcement to make a
positive impact, whether it’s taking five minutes to play basketball with
neighborhood kids, or just being present near a school as children start their
day.
There are approximately 900,000 law enforcement officers in the United States,
serving a population of almost 326 million people, and officers have a tough job
ahead of them keeping those people safe every day. In serving those millions of
people, 1,511 law enforcement officers have died in the line of duty during the
past 10 years, an average of one death every 58 hours, or 151 per year.
That is why it is so important for citizens in every community to set good
examples for each other. Create a ‘safety culture’ within your neighborhood.
Set up a neighborhood watch, remind your neighbors to drive safely - in short,
watch out for each other and obey the law.
Officers will say that part of wearing the badge is accepting the responsibility
that comes with it. So, next time you see a law enforcement officer, take time to
reflect on and recognize the difficult career they have chosen, and the
dedication and passion it takes to excel at it. Whether the goal is to be an active
part of the community, to make a positive change in someone’s life, or to keep
families safe, all law enforcement officers have reasons Why They Serve.
