It’s time to acknowledge a new WBTM/Danville Dental Associates Citizen of the Month…she is Sylvia Brooks, Youth Engagement Corporal with Danville Police Department. The author of her letter of nomination asked to remain anonymous.
Sylvia has been with the Danville Police Department for close to 25 years. In that time, she has served many positions and completed many assignments by the department. Her impressive resume includes working Patrol, Community Police Force and School Resource Officer. She is now the Youth Engagement Corporal.
If you follow Corporal Brooks on social media, you are well aware that she is constantly creating new opportunities to invite the community to support the youth of Danville. She has planned events such as Halloween Trunk or Treats, Easter Basket Giveaways, School Supply Drives – and continues to make these free events for the children of our area in efforts to show them support and affection – being a sole source of that for many children who participate.
Other community support supplied by Sylvia includes setting up snack carts at local schools for Teacher Appreciation Week, Welcoming Committee at schools for the first day of the school year as well as monthly visits and involvement with school programs that offer prizes for community service hours completed by students.
She is the true embodiment of “Better Together” – a phrase she has coined and uses on a daily basis.
Sylvia is responsible for planning and organizing Danville’s 1st ever Youth Police Academy. This provided an opportunity for the area youth to shadow police officers, learn about careers in law enforcement and encourage them to lead a life of being law abiding citizens.
Along with all of her duties and services, Corporal Brooks is never seen without a smile on her face or a warm tone to her voice. Always a friendly presence and a reminder for all that police officers are there to help you.
We are in complete agreement with the writer of this anonymous letter of nomination…thus Sylvia Brooks, Youth Engagement Corporal with Danville Police Department, is our WBTM/Danville Dental Associates Citizen of the Month!
