Oakland Park Deputy Ira Rubinstein was selected as the 2007 Broward County TRIAD Police Officer of the Year by TRIAD's Board of Directors. Deputy Rubinstein was recognized for his years of positive contribution to the organization as well as his enthusiasm is assisting its membership.
TRIAD is a partnership between the Broward Sheriff's Office, the Broward County Chiefs of Police and the Association for the Advancement of Retired Persons (AARP) and older/retired leadership in the area. This partnership works together to reduce the criminal victimization of senior citizens and enhances the delivery of law enforcement services to Broward County's elderly population. TRIAD provides the opportunity for the exchange of information between law enforcement and senior citizens.
TRIAD assesses the needs and concerns of older citizens and provides referrals to appropriate resources, programs and services which will reduce the fear of crime and the impact of victimization while improving the quality of life for the community's seniors. TRIAD sponsors crime prevention and victim/witness programs, recruits and trains volunteers to assist police departments and provides a forum for law enforcement and the community to share needs and concerns while developing solutions.
The BSO / Oakland Park District is proud of Deputy Rubinstein for this accomplishment. (Pictured from L to R: Chief John Bukata, Deputy Ira Rubinstein, Sgt. Rick LaCerra, Deputy Pete Outwater, Lt. Allan Hubrig).
