Honoring Family, Education & Community Through Service & Mentorship
The Mission of the Association is to eliminate prejudice and discrimination in the Criminal Justice System (particularly in law enforcement). To create a fraternal/professional organization that provides support, advocacy, personal and professional development to its members. To prevent and reduce juvenile delinquency, and lessen neighborhood tension in the Latino communities, through awareness and role modeling, provide bi-lingual assistance to the public, and bridge the gap between the Latino community and the police.
The NLPOA is committed to awarding scholarships to high school students interested in pursuing a higher education, and we are proud to say we have awarded over one hundred scholarships to underprivileged students as an alternative to gangs and drugs.
Thanks to our sponsors, supporters, and our membership for their continued support which allows us to provide assistance to youth, and the community.
Our Mission is to further promote the interests of our organization and our members to the community. We strive to make a difference by educating the public and expanding our reach.
NLPOA PREAMBLE
The National Latino Peace Officers Association (NLPOA) can make positive contributions to the law enforcement process in our Nation, fraternally establish ourselves as an association to assist, support, and motivate change, for the betterment of all our citizens. We are aware that the people served by the criminal justice system are varied ethnically and culturally, therefore, the system must be responsive to all the people of the community. The NLPOA, working cooperatively with law enforcement and the community, will seek to recruit Latinos for employment, into the criminal justice system. The NLPOA endeavors to serve the community and strive to improve the quality of life for all citizens (NLPOA Founded 1972).
