Greetings, fellow reserves. The CRPOA has been hard at work, adding value and working on behalf of all 3,500 reserve officers in California. Our lobbying efforts have ensured we have a voice in our State Capitol, and our association with the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) has now evolved into the CRPOA being the first and only all-reserve officer lodge in the country (Lodge #74).
Historic, once-in-a-lifetime and even epic are not strong enough words to describe the effort and results of Los Angeles reserve police officers assisting, side by side, French municipal police officers as they kept the streets of Paris safe during the Olympics.
LAPD reserve police officers and other law enforcement officers cheered on athletes at the 2024 Special Olympics Southern California Summer Games at Cal State Long Beach in June. Thanks to Officers Ali Basher and Albert Austria for providing the photos.
