SSPBA Member Family Resource
May 6, 2026
The SSPBA has successfully worked for decades to support its members, but many of those members have loved ones at home who face unique challenges of their own.
The Member Family Resource initiative was established under the direction of the operations department to support those loved ones and help them navigate the difficulties of law enforcement life.

Hayden Linton was born in San Diego, California but has called Rogers, Arkansas home since the age of three when his dad retired from the Navy. His hometown offers a powerful sense of community that Hayden appreciates. "No matter where you go or what you are doing, you will always be greeted by happy people, with a smile on their face. In Rogers as a kid, it was also very rare to be bored." He continues, "We have countless hidden gems behind every corner that make this city so entertaining to live in and so easy to call home."

Jackson Patterson is a freshman at the University of South Alabama with several big ambitions. He's just not sure which ones he will follow yet. "Right now, my biggest challenge is deciding what I want my future to look like," he told me. He's studying engineering, and it's possible that he chooses to go straight into building a career in the aerospace industry after college. But it's also possible that he takes an even more interesting path ? he's interested in traveling the world and performing on stage, for example ? because if one thing's for sure about Jackson, it's that he's willing to branch out and try new things that he finds exciting ? even if they're unconventional.
