A Well Deserved Award

Award 2-9-12.

Back in April of 2011 at the East Side Community Neighborhood Meeting Sgt. Tracy Baden was their month's guest speaker explaining the youth bureau and the four detectives assign to her staff of the many hardships they must encounter with the handling an approximate 150 case load annually with 500 arrest.

Working with the friendship center, the Klingberg family center, and big brothers & sisters.

When the Vice Squad arrest the parents of youngsters we bring the children to the station and watch them until the department of DCF take over their care.

She concluded her remarks noting that the youth department detectives must be commended for all the awful situations they must handle each day finding it hard to forget what they had to endure during their shifts.

Most residents of our city are unaware of the great work the youth bureau performs under her leadership but she is still capable to find time, with her busy schedule, to seek grants for the department on her own time and to teach new police officers.
