DREAMS REALLY DO COME TRUE
Six-year-old Kayson Gomes has a big dream. When he grows up, he wants to become a police officer because, in his words, "they help people."
When the Brockton Police Department learned that all Kayson wanted for his 6th birthday was a visit from police officers, we knew we had to make it happen.
Officers surprised Kayson at his home with lights, sirens, birthday gifts, the chance to climb inside a police cruiser, sound the siren, and even pose for photos with some of Brockton's finest.
Sometimes, the biggest smiles don't come with words. Kayson's excitement and the look in his eyes said it all.
Thank you, Kayson, for reminding us why building relationships with the next generation matters. Happy Birthday! Keep chasing your dreams, and we'll be cheering you on every step of the way.

CONGRATS TO THE FIRST GRADUATING CLASS OF THE 2026 BROCKTON POLICE CADET PROGRAM
We are proud to recognize an outstanding group of young people who successfully completed the first of two Junior Police Cadet sessions this summer.
Throughout the program, the cadets explored the profession of policing while building leadership skills, teamwork, discipline, physical fitness, and a commitment to serving their community.
Some cadets were recognized for their exceptional achievements throughout the program, and every graduate received a new laptop computer to support their educational journey.
Congratulations to all of our graduates! We are proud of your hard work and dedication, and we wish you continued success in the years ahead.
A special thank you to Brockton Police Cadets Sturdevant and Resende, Lt. Williams Schlieman, Officer Sandy McNair, our visiting officers from the K-9 Unit, CPR, and SRT, and especially Officer Derek Salamone, who leads the Junior Police Cadet Program. Thank you all for your hard work, dedication, and commitment to connecting with and building bridges between the Brockton Police and the young people in our community.
