Women in Blue: Heart of Service Luncheon

The San Diego Police Foundation hosts the 15th annual Women in Blue Luncheon: Heart of Service, bringing together regional business and community leaders to highlight the importance of increased gender diversity in policing.

The event will honor three outstanding female leaders in public safety: SDPD Lieutenant Jo Makwana, Assistant Crime Laboratory Director Stacey Houg, and Officer Serafina Marquez. Proceeds support the Women in Blue Initiative, which provides funding for training, mentoring, networking, and leadership development opportunities for women in law enforcement. The luncheon also advances SDPD’s commitment to the national 30×30 Pledge, aiming to increase female representation across all ranks of policing.
