Sheriff Woo recognized nearly 25% of veterans go into law enforcement or become first responders following their service to their country.
To continue honoring and focusing on the mental health of our veterans, participants joined in a “Walk a Mile in their Boots” honoring the 17 veterans who take their lives every day and are impacted by mental health.
