History

<p style="text-align: left;">In 1958, a group of law-enforcement offers met and formed the Western Colorado Peace Officer Association.  Since that time, WCPOA has provided training to thousands of officers and support staff at their semi-annual conferences.  The Spring Conference is held in Grand Junction, and the Fall Conference is rotated throughout Western Colorado.  WCPOA conferences provide training along with networking opportunities.</p> <p style="text-align: left;">Membership is open to full-time peace officers, special agents of railroad companies, district attorneys, dispatchers, federal agents, fire department investigators, and support staff of the above listed agencies.  We welcome membership from all over Colorado as well as surrounding states.</p>
