The National Law Enforcement Museum in Washington, D.C., is offering free admission to all active and retired law enforcement officers and guests for Law Enforcement Appreciation Day.

The exhibit recognizes the 72 officers killed on September 11, as well as 236 officers who died of illnesses contracted while working in the hazardous conditions at the World Trade Center.

The number of law enforcement professionals nationwide who died in the line of duty in 2020 increased 96% over the previous year, according to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund, a nonprofit group that has long tracked officer fatalities.

The Destination Zero program is designed to make it safer for those who serve. Destination Zero is a program of the Department of Justice, Office of Justice Programs, Bureau of Justice Assistance. The program serves as a repository of information designed to assist law enforcement agencies with initiatives to keep officers safe, mentally and physically healthy, and emotionally resilient.

Like scores of organizations across the country, the COVID-19 pandemic has forced the National Law Enforcement Memorial and Museum to change the way it engages with visitors. Despite the current global health pandemic, the organization remains committed to its mission of honoring the fallen, making it safer for those who serve and educating the public about the history of American law enforcement.

Many people know about the National Law Enforcement Memorial and Museum’s mission to remember the fallen. The nation’s only living monument to the brave men and women who died in the line of duty, the National Law Enforcement Memorial currently has the names of 22,217 fallen officers engraved on its walls. Sadly, more names are added each year as officers continue to die while trying to keep their communities safe.

The National Law Enforcement Memorial and Museum is deeply concerned about current events around the country. We are an organization that cares deeply about diversity, fairness, respect, honor, and justice. Our actions, both individually and collectively, can make a difference in our communities around the nation, and the National Law Enforcement Memorial and Museum is committed even more to being one of those difference makers.
