Badges with Bears

Attorney Shauna Billingsley represents the Bar Association’s Young Lawyers Division of District 11. Yesterday, at Police Headquarters, she met with Chief David Rahinsky to present him with an assortment of new teddy bears her organization has been collecting for the community’s children. “Things like car crashes or family fights can be extremely frightening to young children,” Billingsley said. “Helping police connect with them during times of trouble is something we felt compelled to help with. Many of us are parents and agreed that helping to make our children more comfortable with our police force is important.”
