Our approach
Our Mission
Our mission is to make sure all law enforcement museums in north america get all the support they need, when they need it, no matter what it is.
Whether it is a conversation, financial help, education, professional training, or simply the assurance that they are on the right track, we aim to make sure that everyone gets support and resources that meets them where they’re at as quickly as possible.
Our Vision
We want to build a network where no law enforcement museum gets left behind and gets every possible help they need as soon as possible.
Our entire team wants to see a network of law enforcement museums where everyone involved feels able to reach out and has people who’ll help them with education, resources, and more. We want to host biennial conferences in every region so we’ll be reachable to all.
