Attorney General James Uthmeier presented the Back the Blue award to Kirsten Bridegan for her extraordinary support of law enforcement and the community through the Bridegan Foundation.

“By turning tragedy into a source of compassion, Kirsten Bridegan is making a lasting impact on law enforcement and our communities,” said Attorney General James Uthmeier. “I’m honored to present a Back the Blue Award to Kirsten for her efforts to help others with the Bexley Boxes program—where essential childcare items are provided to Florida law enforcement officers to help them comfort children who find themselves in traumatic situations.”
