• A collective moment as families, survivors, law enforcement, victim advocates, community leaders, and members come together to adorn the tree with angel ornaments.
The 229th Judicial District Attorney’s Office extend a warm invitation to all of the local, state and federal law enforcement partners, victim services agencies, community leaders, and community members to join this special event.
For those unable to join us on the night of the ceremony, the Tree of Angels will remain on display throughout the month of December, providing an opportunity to honor and remember your loved ones.
