Last night, the Boston Police Department and Harbor Point Church in South Boston hosted a First Responder Appreciation Night. The event, supported by the Bureau of Community Engagement, Special Operations, and the Boston Fire Department, celebrated the city's first responders and their service to the community.
The evening focused on building connections between law enforcement and young citizens. The Tiger Squad, a youth group, interacted with officers and firefighters, tried on protective gear, and learned about their roles. Their questions helped them understand the realities of being a first responder.
For locals interested to more become involved or learn about future events, BPD encourages residents to reach out to their local Community Service Office. As reported by the announcement on their site, community members can stay updated on various activities and foster a deeper connection with those dedicated to Boston's safety.
