Welcome Members, Friends & Visitors

The Garden State Law Enforcement Officers Association was created on January 15, 1996 by a group of New Jersey Enforcement Officers concerned with families of Law Enforcement who have lost their loved ones "In the Line of Duty" or to an "Untimely Death". These officers also saw the assistance that active Law Enforcement Officers suffering from "Debilitating Injuries and Illnesses" needed and created a fund in especially for them.

The Garden State Law Enforcement Officers Association is statewide organization, which has been classified as a 501(c)(3) organization. Therefore any donations and/or dues are tax deductable. Any active, retired or part-time Law Enforcement Officer is eligible for membership.

Each year between 140 and 160 Law Enforcement Officers pay the ultimate sacrifice and thousands more are injured in the performance of their duties, it is our hope that our organization can assist those affected in some way.

Our organization has also been very active in the community since its inception and donates regularly to the following charities:

• NJ Special Olympics

• Bowman Survivors Fund

• Police Unity Tour

• March of Dimes

• American Cancer Foundation

• NJ Blind Citizens Association

• CJ SIDS Foundation

• Emmanuel Cancer Foundation

• Be The Match Foundation

Also, The Garden State Law Enforcement Officers Association has created the following organizational programs and funds:

• Survivors Fund

• Officer Assistance Program

• College Scholarship Fund

• Community Action Fund

Once again I welcome you and hope you enjoy our site.

Sincerely Yours

Robert J. Gries

President
