San Ramon Police Department

This National Police Week, we honor the officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice in service to their communities and recognize the dedication of those who continue to serve each day.

At the San Ramon Police Department, we are grateful for the commitment, compassion, and courage of our personnel and law enforcement partners everywhere. Thank you for standing beside our community today and every day. 💙

Congratulations to Officer Akacsos, who was honored last night at the Red, Blue & Gold Awards Banquet as one of the Tri-Valley’s law enforcement officers of the year. 👏

Selected by his peers for his hard work, dedication, and commitment to serving the San Ramon community and the students at California High School, Officer Akacsos represents the very best of SRPD.

We are proud to have him on our team and grateful for the positive impact he makes every day. 💙

Join us in congratulating Shasta, our therapy K9, on completing her training through the National Institute of Canine Service and Training 💛
 
Through the First Response K9 Program, Shasta’s journey began as a rescue from the Merced County Animal Shelter. She then spent 9 months in the Paws on a Mission Inmate Training Program, where she built the skills that now help her support others every day.
 
Trained in deep pressure therapy and always ready to lend a paw, Shasta is here to provide comfort, connection, and a little extra kindness when it’s needed most.

A big congratulations as well to her handler, Valerie Powell, for completing the training alongside her and for the care and commitment she brings to this role every day.
 
We’re so proud of you both 🐾💛
