CRPOA Membership and Association Information
General Membership Information for The California Reserve Peace Officers Association
CRPOA membership is open to anyone who is involved in or supportive of law enforcement. Our membership is made up of Reserve Peace Officers, Full-Time Regular Peace Officers, Law Enforcement Administrators, Volunteers in Law Enforcement, Search and Rescue members and citizens who feel it is important to support their volunteers. We welcome members from anywhere and have categories of membership for both active and retired individuals. Special benefits are offered to law enforcement agencies that join CRPOA as a unit.
Membership dues are collected annually. Individuals and Departments will be invoiced at least 30 days before their membership becomes due. Membership must be current for member benefits to be applied.
CRPOA serves the entire law enforcement community through organizational networking, education, legal services and medical benefits. We actively participate in POST (the State of California's Commission on Peace Officers Standards and Training) committees and discussions regarding CRPOA Member activities. We work closely with the California State Legislature on Bills where volunteers are involved.

Each year CRPOA sponsors a training conference for Reserve Peace Officers, Volunteers in Law Enforcement and Search and Rescue members. This training conference, one of the largest law enforcement training events in the State of California is entitled the Annual Reserve Peace Officers Conference (ARPOC). ARPOC is composed of professionally taught training classes, static and active displays of law enforcement related activities, along with numerous vendor displays of law enforcement products. The classes provide POST certified training that fulfills the required 24 hours of advanced officer training for reserve officers in the State of California.

THE BACKUP
Following the direction of many associations and businesses, we are now using the Internet to publish The Backup magazine.
For several years we have been posting The Backup on the CRPOA web site for our members to download copies of both the current and previous issues. In addition, we have added other timely information and forms to the CRPOA.org for you to review and retrieve.
Now, The Backup will arrive in a more timely manner, and you can choose to view it on the web or print it (in color!) and read it as you always have.
Changes like these will help CRPOA to continue to provide you timely information, while allowing us to keep our administrative expenses at the lowest possible.
