The HAIX Hero of the Month program is a feature on the Facebook Page of POLICE Magazine. Fellow officers, supervisors, community members in the jurisdiction the officer serves, friends, and family members can nominate officers to be honored. A panel of judges will then consider each entry and name three officers to compete for HAIX Hero of the Month honors. Each officer selected will have his or her story featured on POLICE Magazine's Facebook page where people who come to the page can register "Likes." Each officer's story will be featured on the page for one week. At the end of the month, the officer with the most "Likes" will be named HAIX Hero of the Month. HAIX will award a pair of boots to the HAIX Hero of the Month.
The first nominee was named Friday October 12. HAIX is looking for two more heroes to consider for October honors. Click here and nominate your hero today.
