An Albany, GA, police officer has been nominated for July HAIX Hero of the Month honors for his work in the community.

Ptl. Travis Goodson has served Albany for nearly four years and his service has gone far beyond the standard duties of a law enforcement officer.

Goodson's supervisor nominated him for HAIX Hero of the Month. In the nomination he wrote: "Ptl. Travis Goodson is very passionate about the City of Albany becoming one community." Toward that end, Goodson has organized and coordinated a number of community initiatives. For example, Goodson led dozens of citizen volunteers who painted the shutters on the McIntosh Homes housing area, cleaned up the grounds, and cooked food. Goodson also started a #HUGACOP campaign that went viral. His supervisor says Goodson is currently planning another community day cleanup involving a local high school and a "child safety seat education event for low income mothers."
