As a part of the Life Enrichment Program, the assisted living community participates in annual holidays and observances to acknowledge the individuals who protect and serve others.
The annual observance was established in 1962 by President John F.
Kennedy, who signed a proclamation that designated May 15 as Peace Officers Memorial Day, and the week that it falls on would be celebrated as National Police Week.
