Associate Membership (Personal)
The FOP is a civilian affiliate of the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP). Our members are friends and families of law enforcement Officers, responsible and respected business persons, professional men and women, and citizens from all walks of life–people willing to devote a portion of their time and efforts toward assisting the various law enforcement agencies of our communities, states and nation.
The FOP is a non-partisan organization, without regard to race, creed, color or religious beliefs. We are a part of a National Organization with State and Local Lodges throughout the nation.
The FOP’s interests revolve around law enforcement and the men and women that have dedicated their lives to the protection of ours.
The FOP actively supports legislation, and all law enforcement efforts on a local, state and national level.
Associate membership is to be applied for through your local lodge.
