Per the RPOAC Bylaws, individual Chapter meetings are now only held in even-numbered years in order to accommodate the election of Chapter Directors.

Members are encouraged to contact their Chapter Directors with any questions or concerns about our association.

The Directors look forward to seeing you at your Biennial Chapter meeting in 2024.

Now that you're retired, do you have a little spare time on your hands? Were you actively involved with your labor organization while working? Would you like to get more involved with the Retired Peace Officers Association of California?

If you answered yes to any of these, you should consider becoming a Director with RPOAC! We currently have Director positions open for Orange County, Central Coast, North Valley and Oregon Chapters. Although it is preferred, you don't have to live in the Chapter to be the Director.

If you would like to apply for one of these positions or just want more information about the duties, please send an email to our Executive Director at rpoac1@yahoo.com.

CCW Coverage Offered Through RPOAC

As retired peace officers many of us are authorized to carry a concealed weapon. But, have you given any thought to what your liabilities could be if you were to have to use that weapon in a self-defense incident? The legal costs alone could devastate your retirement nest egg not to mention the physical and emotional stress it would inflect on you and your family.

 

CCW Safe was founded by former police officers and attorneys who have all worked on local, and federal levels of law enforcement. CCW Safe is a legal service membership plan that was designed for CCW permit/license holders and retired law enforcement officers. CCW Safe was founded to offer similar coverages to what we received while serving our communities as active police officers.
