Welcome to the  

Texas

Citizen Police Academy  

Alumni Association

MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of the Texas Citizen Police Academy Alumni Association is to assist and educate the various Citizen Police Academy Alumni Associations within the State of Texas to better serve their communities by more effectively partnering with and supporting the law enforcement agencies in their area.

We will accomplish this through educational classes, seminars and group gatherings. The educational process will be conducted by law enforcement agencies from local, county, state and federal jurisdiction and any other organization dealing with security issues. In having the tools to be more vigilant, the local CPAAA’s can be significant assets to their sponsoring law enforcement agencies while also providing valuable opportunities for civic-minded citizens to give back to their communities as volunteers.

Education in vigilant activities could encompass the topics of drugs, gangs, missing children and adults, along with other subjects as needed.

Concerns of Police Survivors Each year, between 140 and 160 officers are killed in the line of duty and their families and co-workers are left to cope with the tragic loss.  C.O.P.S. provides resources to help them rebuild their shattered lives.  There is no membership fee to join C.O.P.S., for the price paid is already too high.
