ABOUT VIRGINIA COPS

Who We are--What We DO

  • VIRGINIA COPS was formed out of a  group of police officers and Deputy Sheriffs which met in Richmond,  Virginia early in 1990.  It consisted of Alexandria COPS, Local 5;  Arlington COPS, Local 48; the Virginia Beach Police Benevolent  Association, Local 34; the Charlottesville Police Association Local 67  and other police officers working in Richmond and throughout Virginia.  It was developed to provide a state-wide voice for the working needs of  police officers, their associations and their unions.  Over its first  three years Virginia COPS operated as a state council of the  International Union of Police Associations.  In 1993 it established its  permanent form as a 501 (c) 5 labor organization.  In 2008 VCOPS revised  its constitution and established itself as an independent statewide  labor organization.  Virginia Cops is not a charity it is a police officers organization which works hard to improve the lot of Virginia's working street cops. 
  • VCOPS stands for the The Virginia Coalition of Police and Deputy Sheriffs. A nonprofit whose goal is to assist all working law enforcement officers in Virginia.

Our GOALS

  •  VCOPS stands for the The Virginia Coalition of Police and Deputy  Sheriffs. It is an organization whose goal is to assist all working law  enforcement officers in Virginia.  VCOPS is a working cops organization that was established to provide one  united voice for Virginia's law enforcement officers. Our goal is to  improve wages, hours and working conditions as well as to increase the  recognition of the professionalism of law enforcement in Virginia. We  also provide training and consultation to our member organizations and  individual LEO's. Finally, we work on a state level to introduce and  support legislation which is beneficial to all of Virginia's law  enforcement officers and oppose legislation that reduces benefits to law  enforcement. VCOPS also promotes Officer Safety and Survival. 

POLITICAL AFFILIATION

  •  VCOPS has no particular political affiliation.  On a state or local  level, VCOPS supports anyone who supports the needs of working police  officers and deputy sheriffs (not necessarily those who say they are  pro-law enforcement) We support those who help us accomplish our goals  and objectives. 

 

  • Any Law Enforcement Officer in Virginia  is eligible for a Grant to attend a Calibre Press Street Survival  School anywhere in the US.  Review the Course List and apply.  Go to www.calibrepress.com and review the course list.  Email us and we will arrange to pay your tuition.

    National Police Week Cancelled/Delayed

    National Police Week 2021 is pending the Reopening of Washington DC.

                  Sunday, May 9 – Saturday, May 15, 2021

    The Covid-19 health crisis that our nation and the world is currently facing may impact public gatherings in Washington, DC, during National Police Week 2021, but the National Law Enforcement Memorial and Museum will recognize National Police Week at the dedicated time on the calendar to honor, remember, and celebrate American Law Enforcement, as well as make it safer for those who serve.

    Visit www.nleomf.org for a list of all of the programs and events being schedule for 2021 National Police Week!

    The United Police Fund's Symposium on Pressing Police Health issues such as Suicide, Cumulative PTSD, Stress in Law Enforcement and the ongoing War On Police, is pending the reopening of Washington DC.   Due to the COVID-19  threat to public safety and the cancellation of large groups of people we may also have to cancel our meeting.   When the National Law Enforcement Memorial Fund announces the dates for the 2021 observance for officers killed in the line of duty we will re book and announce where and when we will have the Symposium.

    National Police Week 2021 Sunday, May 9– Saturday, May 15

    What is Police Week?

     In 1962, President Kennedy proclaimed May 15 as National Peace  Officers Memorial Day and the calendar week in which May 15 falls, as National Police Week.  Established by a joint resolution of Congress in 1962, National Police  Week pays special recognition to those law enforcement officers who have  lost their lives in the line of duty for the safety and protection of  others.

    National Police Week is a collaborative effort of many organizations dedicated to honoring America’s law enforcement community. The principal organizers of National Police Week include:

    • National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund (NLEOMF), which produces the annual Candlelight Vigil.
      Phone: 202.737.3400 | vigil@nleomf.org
    • Fraternal Order of Police/Fraternal Order of Police Auxiliary (FOP/FOPA), which organize the Peace Officers Memorial Day Service at the U.S. Capitol.
      www.policeweek.org
    • Concerns of Police Survivors (C.O.P.S.), which holds the National Police Survivors’ Conference.
      Phone: (573) 346-4911 | cops@nationalcops.org

        


    Annual Candlelight Vigil

    Each year on May 13th, the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial  Fund produces its annual Candlelight Vigil—a signature event of National Police Week in Washington, DC. During the Candlelight Vigil,  fallen officers whose names were engraved on the Memorial’s walls that  spring are formally dedicated. Held on the National Mall, in addition to  the lighting of candles and reading of names, the Candlelight Vigil  includes remarks by dignitaries, and musical tributes performed to honor the memory of these fallen officers.
