This honor recognizes Missouri communities that demonstrate their commitment to enhancing public safety, investing in and supporting law enforcement and building partnerships between law enforcement and our community.
The Missouri Blue Shield Program was created by Governor Mike Kehoe in January 2025 through Executive Order 25-03.
“The Blue Shield program has shown what’s possible when communities commit to prioritizing law enforcement and public safety,” Governor Kehoe said. “After awarding $50,000 grants to more than 200 communities last year, we’re continuing that work by welcoming new communities and renewing Blue Shield designations for counties, towns, and cities that remain committed to the program.”
“We are honored to receive the Missouri Blue Shield designation and grateful to the County Commission and our community for their continued support of public safety. This recognition reflects a shared commitment to investing in law enforcement, strengthening community partnerships, and working together to Keep Cass County Safe for everyone,” said Sheriff Jeff Weber.
