THE RESILIENCY PROJECT PRESENTED SHERIFF VILLANUEVA WITH THE "SHERIFF OF THE YEAR" AWARD

The mission of this project is to provide the nation's first responders with peer support, advocacy and psychological services in order to end the silent suffering. Sheriff Villanueva was awarded “Sheriff of the Year Award,” a national level award. The only other Sheriff recognized with this award was Sheriff Chad Bianco from Riverside Sheriff’s Department.
