Message From President Andrew Gomez

Greetings To All

Recently, the Maricopa County Chapter of the National Latino Peace Officer Association (AZNLPOA) held a membership and elections meeting. The meeting was inspiring with thoughtful words delivered by the guest speakers and festive with visiting old friends and greeting new members, which typifies the AZNLPOA.

As the newly elected President of the AZ Chapter, I would like to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Lou Espindola (Lou) the outgoing President for his leadership and wisdom. Lou has and always will be an icon of AZNLPOA. Thanks Lou!

The NLPOA is an organization that serves communities of all walks of life, it is not an organization formed to be contentious, on the contrary, our organization exists to provide a place where diverse perspectives, cultures and values are accepted, appreciated, and celebrated. The recognition of a common humanity is the first step in the celebration of our differences. Remembering the past is an honorable avenue to practice in this ever-changing world and as law enforcement professionals it is incumbent of us to do so.

In closing, I am grateful to the members of the newly elected AZNLPOA Board of Directors and know that together we will work closely and diligently to serve our community and chapter.

May the holidays bring you Joy and the New Year every Blessing.

Warm Regards,

Andrew Gomez
