✔️ Another successful week of RadKIDS-Children's Safety Education has come to a close! New year, same incredible inspiration. Watching these kids grow in confidence never gets old!

Through role-play, self-defense, and hands-on activities, participants learned practical ways to recognize risks, stay aware of their surroundings, and respond to potentially dangerous situations.

A huge thank you to our dedicated officers—SRO Sullivan, Det. Chaisson, and Ofc. O’Brien, Ofc. Capotosto—for making this program such a huge success!

We would also like to express our gratitude 🙌 to Lexington Recreation and Community Programsi for co-sponsoring this incredible initiative.

🎉Congratulations 2026 RadKIDS!
