The True Blue Unit was founded in 2006 by Officer Jason Johnson. Johnson had been a police officer for several years, and he had seen firsthand the challenges that his community faced. He knew that there was a need for a group of officers who would be committed to serving their community in a positive way.

Johnson reached out to other officers who shared his vision, and the True Blue Unit was born. The unit is made up of sworn officers, civilian employees, retirees, and volunteers. They are all committed to serving their community with compassion and integrity.

The True Blue Unit is a faith-based organization, and its members come from a variety of religious backgrounds. They believe that their faith helps them to be better police officers. It gives them a sense of purpose and a desire to serve others.

The True Blue Unit's motto is "To serve and protect with compassion and integrity." They believe that these two qualities are essential for good policing. Compassion allows officers to understand the needs of the people they serve, and integrity ensures that they always act in a ethical and professional manner.

The True Blue Unit has a strong presence in the community. They offer a variety of programs and services, including:

li>Community events: The True Blue Unit hosts a variety of community events, such as block parties, cookouts, and holiday events. These events help to build relationships between the police and the community.

The True Blue Unit is a shining example of how faith can make a difference in the world.

True Stories of Faith in Action

The following are a few true stories of how faith has made a difference in the lives of True Blue Unit officers:

• Officer Johnson was once called to the scene of a domestic violence incident. The woman who had been assaulted was badly injured, and she was terrified. Johnson knew that he needed to do something to help her, but he didn't know what. He prayed for guidance, and he felt a sense of peace come over him. He was able to talk to the woman and calm her down. He then helped her to get the medical attention she needed.
• Officer Smith was once patrolling his beat when he saw a young boy standing on the side of the road. The boy was crying, and he told Smith that he had lost his dog. Smith helped the boy to look for his dog, and they eventually found it. The boy was so grateful to Smith that he gave him a hug. Smith said that the hug was one of the most rewarding moments of his career.
• Officer Jones was once called to the scene of a car accident. The driver of one of the cars was seriously injured, and he was not expected to survive. Jones prayed for the driver, and he asked God to give him strength. The driver miraculously recovered from his injuries, and he is now back to living a full and active life.
