Chesterfield Police Officer Association
ABOUT THE CHESTERFIELD POLICE OFFICERS’ ASSOCIATION
The CPOA is a not for profit organization established in 1996. It is organization similar to the Municipal League
that serves the needs of Municipal Government administrations and the Police Chiefs’ Association which
supports police administrators. Like many police officer associations, the CPOA was created to support the
welfare of rank and file police employees and their families.
The CPOA is affiliated with the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP), on the national, state and local level. All members
of the CPOA are members of the Eastern Missouri Coalition of Police, Missouri FOP Lodge 15. The FOP is the
largest organization in the country representing the interest of law enforcement and their families. It is an
organization of police officers representing police officers. Please take time to visit the links to the FOP
affiliations to learn more about what they do for law enforcement officers, their families and the communities
that they serve.
The CPOA while established to assist police officers and their families also works within the community.
Portions of the annual golf tournament are donated to local charities. New ideas are being sought out and
studied to assist the community in the Metropolitan area. Ideas or request for assistance are welcomed and
should be directed to the CPOA.
The men and women of the CPOA are our sons, daughters, husband, wives, brothers and sisters. They are
committed to the citizens who live, work and recreate in Chesterfield. They strive for excellence while protecting
the Constitutions of the United States, State of Missouri and the laws of Chesterfield.
Police officers are no different then any other person. We have dreams, desires and goals. While we choose a
profession to help people, we also have an obligation to ourselves and our own families. That means that as we
grow older and our families grow bigger, our needs change and we strive to improve our ability to provide. An
experienced, well balanced and content work force is imperative to the community that it serves.
As a police association we seek to bargain with our employer in accordance with current laws. Just a chance to
sit down and talk about needs and welfare and sign a contract much like that of a chief executive officer of a
company or a chief administrator for a government operation.
Please remember this important phrase about policing, “The police are the community and the community is the
police.” While the police force is paid to do a job that the community does not wish to perform, the community is
still the eyes and ears of the police. A police force is the single most important arm of government and most
visible and recognized form of government. Are they treated as such?
If you have any questions visit the contact page of this site and contact the association or an executive board
member.
