Florida Sheriffs Task Force Announce Successful Completion of Operation Safe Kids
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (September 12, 2023) —Today, the Florida Sheriffs Association (FSA) Task Force released the results of Operation Safe Kids, a strategic initiative in 42 Florida counties that called attention to traffic safety in and around schools to ensure that children had a safe return to school from Summer Break. During the Task Force Operation Safe Kids, Florida’s sheriffs issued 7,218 warnings and 5,171 traffic citations, dedicated 5,900 hours during the enforcement period, delivered 5,520 educational messages and posted 80,674 social media messages throughout the state.
“Safeguarding Florida’s future through youth-focused programs and services is a key objective for law enforcement statewide. This goal is being achieved through this operation by identifying and monitoring high-risk areas, issuing warnings and citations, and educating the public on the importance of school zone safety,” said FSA President and Nassau County Sheriff Bill Leeper. “The implementation of this program highlights Florida sheriffs’ strong commitment to upholding the security of families and local communities in our state.”
“I am immensely grateful for the collective effort of the Florida Sheriffs Association and the 42 counties who participated in Operation Safe Kids,” said Bay County Sheriff and Chair of the FSA Task Tommy Ford. “This initiative has been instrumental in ensuring the safe return of Florida’s students to school.
