Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Education
Mission: The national police association is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded to educate supporters of law enforcement on how to help police departments accomplish their goals.
Programs: The association's programs strived to accomplish the following:- public recognition of outstanding work and personal sacrifice by law enforcement officers. - emphasis on aggressive crime fighting to maximize the utilization of patrol and investigative resources in the identification, arrest, and conviction of individuals committing criminal activity. - implementation of 'broken windows' policing policy for all state and local agencies. - authorization of local law enforcement officers to perform federal immigration law enforcement functions. - implementation of project safe neighborhoods (psn), a national initiative by the united states department of justice to increase prosecution of violent organizations. - implementation of project exile, for slowing the murder rate through aggressive prosecution of gun offenses under federal laws instead of the weaker state statutes. Under this program, conviction on a federal gun charge carries a minimum, mandatory prison sentence of five years, bond is less available, and defendants are sent out of state to serve their sentences. - provision of more real-time information to responding police officers by developing public and private surveillance camera network partnerships. This can be accomplished by joining existing surveillance cameras owned by private individuals and businesses with government cameras to maximize resources.
