About The Colorado FOP
The Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) was founded in 1917 by two Pittsburgh police officers, Delbert Nagle and Martin Toole. What began with just 23 officers in Pittsburgh has grown to over 378,000 members across all 50 states. The FOP now includes 48 state lodges and more than 2,700 local lodges, with over 9,550 members in Colorado alone. As the largest professional police organization in both Colorado and the United States, the FOP represents the most unified and powerful voice for law enforcement officers.
We are dedicated to protecting and improving the rights and benefits of police officers. No one understands the challenges and dangers faced by today’s officers better than fellow officers, and no one knows how to support them like the FOP. We stand together to advocate for one another, because if we don't support each other, no one will.
Take a moment to learn about the positive impact the FOP has made across the country, and the significant strides we've taken in each state we represent. From advancing law enforcement’s working conditions to enhancing the communities they serve, it’s clear: the Fraternal Order of Police is truly the best of the best.
Join us and be part of your future—be FOP. Our continued growth is a testament to our commitment to the cause, and the legacy we’ve built. Today, one in three eligible law enforcement officers nationwide is a member of the FOP. In Colorado, that number rises to three out of four.
As a member of the world’s largest law enforcement organization, you gain access to exclusive benefits and privileges not available through other unions or organizations. The Fraternal Order of Police proudly represents law enforcement officers at all levels of government and ranks, working tirelessly for those who protect and serve.
