The National Police Association is a 501(C)3 non-profit organization, IRS NTEE classification code B01, Alliance/Advocacy Organizations, within the Educational Organizations category, EIN 82-0647764, founded to educate supporters of law enforcement in how to help police departments accomplish their goals. The National Police Association is supported solely through contributions of individuals and organizations. Donations are tax deductible.
The NPA brings attention to the anti-police efforts challenging effective law enforcement through mailings, national TV and radio public service announcements, legal filings on behalf of police officers and agencies, original articles authored for the NPA by law enforcement experts, and our podcast. Additionally the National Police Association Report can be seen Sundays at 10:00 AM EST online at PlutoTV CH 244, on TheFirstTV.com app, and anytime on our YouTube channel.
Intentions are to go national guard for 6years while going to achieve law degree.instead of 2 years reserve am going to re-up as active duty in army jag. Update 3: as an officer. Not many people realize there are many different ways to become a special operations soldier. Of course, the active duty route is the most recognized way to become Army Special Forces, Army Ranger.
In addition to education the NPA uses a dynamic combination of assertive legal filings, in-depth investigations, and clear communications to advance a mission of combating the influence of anti-police activists and helping to hold them accountable. We use the law as a method to highlight abuses by anti-police elected officials, change behavior, and seek corrective action. In addition, we promote policies that encourage public officials to work with police in the public interest, not for the benefit of powerful special interests.
The NPA offers rewards in specific cases where violence has been committed against an officer or where officers have been obstructed and prevented from conducting their duties. The terms and conditions are here. Agencies seeking assistance with a reward offer contact us.
Too many players in our political system from mayors, to citizen review commissions, to special interest activists see oversight of law enforcement as a way to advance their own interests or the interest of political allies at the expense of effective law enforcement. The NPA works against these forces using the law to create accountability, promote officer safety, and restore order and fairness to our country’s endangered communities. When our investigations uncover potential violations of ethics rules or bar association requirements by anti-police politicians the NPA files complaints asking appropriate agencies and organizations to take action. The NPA also uses document requests and open records laws to prove misconduct and facilitate corrective action.
The NPA provides tools to local law enforcement such as legal back up by filing briefs to preserve the legal methods law enforcement officers need to effectively do their job, by educating the public on police techniques such as pro-active policing to generate community support for law enforcement which is a vital tool required by police to do their job, and by conducting morale boosting programs such as the NPA Thank You program because high morale is essential for any law enforcement agency. Additionally, the NPA donates financially to law enforcement related groups such as Police Explorers, Police Cadets, and other programs established to help citizens help police departments accomplish their goals.
The National Police Association advocates Support the Police, and Back the Blue, because Blue Lives Matter.
