Escondido Police Officers' Association

All month long we're celebrating women who paved the way for others. In Law enforcement history we look to women such as Alice Stebbins Wells, Marie Owens, Josephine Serrano, Isabella Goodwin, Georgia Ann Robinson, and more. All important figures who created change and left a lasting impression in our world. We of course want to thank all of the the women currently in Law Enforcement, proudly continuing the tradition to Protect and Serve our community every day.

We want to thank the #NavyReserve for over 100 years of service! We admire your bravery in protecting our country each and every day.

Thank you to the #CoastGuard for 79 years of courageous service

Today we’re sending our strength and support to RCDSA's own Deputy Creiglow whose 4-year-old son, Jameson Creiglow, is currently battling leukemia. We are asking for your help and support for the Creiglow family during this difficult time. Anything helps. You can support the family by donating and sharing today. Thank you all. Support Jameson Today: https://rcdsacreiglow.firstresponderprocessing.com/ Update from his family:... "Jameson did amazing with his last type of Chemotherapy and showed no side effects other than an upset tummy. His vital signs remain stable all night and all morning and his blood count looks amazing. The hospital released Jameson a few days ago and he is now home and being treated as an outpatient. Jameson takes 4-9 different medications at home each day and will receive further Chemo treatment three times a week at Loma Linda so we will be back and forth for a while. We still have a long road ahead of us but I want to thank everyone who has continued to show their love and support for Jameson and ask for continued prayer."
