@wbztv: For more than two decades, Carina Shepard and Joey Key have served the Boston Police Department, but their impact in Roxbury, Massachusetts goes far beyond traditional policing. Through the department’s “Walk the Beat” program, they’ve built lasting relationships with older adults by checking in regularly, connecting residents with resources, hosting community events, and creating a space where seniors feel welcomed and supported. Officer Shepard tells WBZ’s Lisa Hughes, “We didn't just meet these seniors yesterday. They've been coming here for some time. And now they come here looking for us." #boston #massachusetts #police #community #senior
