The core values of Honor, Integrity, and Service are the foundational principles that guide the mission and actions of the Garwood Police Department. Here’s a detailed explanation of each value and its importance:

Honor Honor represents the commitment to uphold ethical standards, respect the profession, and carry out duties with dignity. • Demonstrating respect for the law, colleagues, and the community. • Taking pride in the responsibility of protecting and serving. • Representing the police department in a way that inspires public trust and confidence.

Honor reflects the nobility of the profession and sets the tone for professionalism and accountability. Officers are entrusted with significant authority and must act in ways that reflect positively on the department.

Integrity Integrity is the adherence to moral and ethical principles, honesty, and accountability in all actions. • Upholding the law impartially and without bias. • Being truthful in reports, testimonies, and interactions with the public. • Admitting mistakes and taking responsibility for actions.

Integrity is the foundation of public trust. A department with integrity ensures its officers act transparently and consistently, fostering faith in the justice system.

Service Service emphasizes the commitment to selflessly serve the community, protect lives, and improve the quality of life for all citizens. • Responding to calls for assistance with compassion and urgency. • Engaging with the community to address concerns and promote safety. • Going beyond enforcement to act as mentors, educators, and problem-solvers. 

Service reflects the mission of law enforcement to prioritize the needs of the community and ensure the safety and well-being of all individuals, regardless of their background or circumstances.

Together, Honor, Integrity, and Service form the ethical backbone of a Garwood Police Department. They must guide officers in fulfilling their duties while maintaining public trust, professionalism, and a commitment to service and justice. Departments that embody these values create safer, more cohesive communities and foster stronger relationships between law enforcement and the people they serve.
