19th Precinct Officer Receives Heartwarming Card

In November 2020, nationalpolice.org wrote that “Dear Officer: #WeNeedYou” cards had started to show up on police cars around the country – along with hand-written notes – citing examples from states including Texas, Florida and Virginia.

On Sunday, Officer Gallard from the Upper East Side’s 19th Precinct was delighted to receive one.

Another sign of neighborhood support was shared by the 19th Precinct on the same day, with a tweet showing a chalk-written message in Carl Schurz Park.

While tensions between police departments and citizens remain high in NYC and throughout the country, the officers of the 19th Precinct are happy to have some support on the UES.

The cards are available at humanizingthebadge.com, where they’re sold in sets of 50 at $5 per card (along with other merchandise).
