WEAR THE BADGE INITIATIVE

The state of Minnesota is experiencing shortages in police officers, which has a serious impact on the safety and security of our communities. The Minnesota Chiefs of Police Foundation stands ready to help promote diversity and recruitment as a priority. 

The Wear the Badge Initiative is an education and awareness campaign that helps those interested in law enforcement, learn more about the profession and career. MCPF funds the Wear the Badge initiative and your support will help improve the recruitment and retention of quality police officers across the state.
