Special Olympics has a formidable team in its corner, including Roddy Rocha, a Postal Police officer.
He recently took part in the Law Enforcement Torch Run, which brings together officers from the federal, national, state, local and military sectors to support and raise funds for Special Olympics, which champions athletes with intellectual disabilities.
During the run, Rocha helped carry the “Flame of Hope” torch from San Diego to Long Beach, CA, where the 2025 Special Olympics Southern California Summer Games were held in June.
“It was a wonderful experience,” he said. “I got to raise awareness for the Special Olympics and interact with the community that I protect and serve.”
