Each year the Illinois Sheriffs’ Association offers special scholarships to dependents of our military and law enforcement community. We believe these scholarships demonstrate honor to the families of those who serve our country and communities.
Those eligible to apply for the Peacekeeper Scholarship include dependents of Law Enforcement Officers who are either active duty, retired or those killed in line of duty death. Also eligible are dependents of active duty Military, Military Reserve, National Guard or of those killed in action.
Deputy Andrew Howard, and his partner K-9 Luna, graduated from the K-9 academy this past Friday, and have started patrolling the communities of Washington County. We would like to welcome Luna to our team!
