POLICE RESERVE ASSOCIATION


WHAT IS THE POLICE RESERVE ASSOCIATION?

The Police Reserve Association was established on April 1, 1918 by New York City Police Commissioner Richard Enright.

Today the Police Reserve Association works closely with the Police Commissioner,  executive management,  line,  religious,  fraternal and ethnic organizations in an effort to give New York City's almost 40,000 police officers the support they so urgently need.

WHO ARE ITS MEMBERS?

The Police Reserve Association is not an organization of police officers.  It is an organization of private citizens from all walks of life and of all political persuasions who share a common thought-a love for the City of New York  and a deep concern for the safety of its citizens.  These civic minded citizens and professionals have joined together for the common purpose of helping our city by helping our police. 

 

WHAT DOES THE POLICE RESERVE ASSOCIATION DO?

The Police Reserve Association looks for programs that support the Members Of  The Service.  Some of these programs are at the request of the Police Commissioner , executive management, and/or our membership. 

As a charitable, tax exempt foundation the PRA raises funds on behalf of the N.Y.P.D., for essential programs which are not funded by the city. 

Some of the programs that the PRA has supported over its eighty years of service include: 

We assist the Police Line of Duty Widows Association.

We help support police fraternal, religious and ethnic organizations, through the Committee of Police Societies. (COPS)

We provide merit scholarships to the children of active, retired, living, or deceased  Members Of the Service through a competitive scholastic aptitude test based  solely on merit.

We helped supply badly needed equipment not provided for in the police budget-such as mobile canteens, scuba gear, bicycles, etc. 

We have supported police community projects, including the Nation-Wide Major City Police Department Middle Management Exchange Program.

We sponsor Exemplary Service Awards to notable precincts and special units,  honoring police excellence.

We have been a major contributor to the Bullet Proof Vest Program and the Cardio-Vascular Health Facility. 

We do everything we can to help raise the morale of police officers by letting  them know that there are civilians who care about them and appreciate their efforts
