Several police departments in Southeast Kansas participate in a nationwide event meant to strengthen the relationship between law enforcement and the communities they protect. The event is called “Faith and Blue.” It began in 2020, following several high profile incidents across the United States, where residents of many cities called for the defunding or dismantling of their current policing system. Out of that unrest, “Faith and Blue” was born, where law enforcement and faith-based leaders come together to unite the community with those who serve and protect.
