About the LASD Valor Awards:

In 1982, the Department Valor Awards Program was established to officially and publicly recognize the exceptionally heroic acts performed by members of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. These awards signify courage, acts of heroism while saving the life of another, traumatic physical injury while performing their job, preservation of human life, personal commitment, and sacrifice to help others. As deputy sheriffs, we are called upon to fluidly handle unexpected, challenging and dynamic situations. We do not shy away from uncertainty and work hard to make peace for others, often times at personal risk. Every day, the men and women of our Department perform their duties in a professional manner. Today, however, we honor those who extended themselves extraordinarily beyond what was required or asked of them.
