N. L. P. O. A. FOUNDERS

In the early 1970’s two Latino peace officers had a vision of a Latino law enforcement association, working cooperatively with law enforcement agencies and the community.

 John Parraz, from the Sacramento Sheriff’s Department and Vicente Calderon, from the California Highway Patrol, using their personal time and money, organized and founded what is now known as the National Latino Peace Officers Association. Today, N.L.P.O.A. has chapters from coast to coast.
