The Above & Beyond Awards Ceremony – A Blue Tie Affair, is an event hosted by the Detroit Public Safety Foundation (DPSF) honoring Detroit’s first responders. During the awards ceremony, members of Detroit Police, Fire and EMS receive the Medal of Valor, Purple Heart, and Emergency Medical Merit awards. This year there is also a new award where citizens can nominate members of DPD and/or DFD to receive the Public Safety Distinguished Service award. The purpose of this award is to recognize those individuals who have gone above and beyond in distinguished service for the community in the past year.
The event also includes the Public Safety Partner Award which will be presented to the Detroit Wayne Integrated Health Network (DWIHN). DWIHN has worked in partnership with the DPSF and the Detroit Police Department on the Mental Health Co-Response Program, training officers and helping with mental health response calls in Detroit.
The 12th annual Above & Beyond Awards Ceremony will be held at Ford Field on November 13th.
