Our Mission:

Rebuilding shattered lives of survivors and co-workers affected by line of duty deaths.

Our Vision:

Secure in the knowledge that C.O.P.S. provides exceptional services to surviving families, co-workers and the community; in the event a line of duty death occurs, the agency notifies the family and then C.O.P.S. for immediate response and lifelong support.

Who We Are

Each year, between one and six Arizona law enforcement 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. Arizona provides resources to help survivors rebuild their shattered lives.

Membership

Our membership is over 300 families - it includes spouses, children, parents, siblings, significant others, and affected co-workers of law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty according to federal government criteria. There is no membership fee to join - the price you've paid is already too high.

How We Can Help

We provide a police week orientation for new surviving family members and co-workers, peer-support, and trial and parole support. We also host annual social events like our Summer Picnic and end of year Holiday Party, bringing surviving family members and co-workers together for an enjoyable and fun time.

Law Enforcement Agency Training

We know a survivor's level of distress is directly affected by the agency's response to the tragedy. We offer training and assistance to law enforcement agencies on how to respond to the tragic loss of a member of the law enforcement profession.

501(c)(3) Non-Profit Organization

We are an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Our programs and services are funded by private donations and supporter’s purchase of our state license plate, Families of Fallen Police Officers.
