Join the Auxiliary |
The Virginia State Police Association Auxiliary (VSPAA) was formed on March 31, 1989. Kyle Miller, then president of the Virginia State Police Association, met with spouses of the association members to see if there was enough interest and need to form an auxiliary. The first officers were elected on April 1, 1989. From its inception, the VSPAA has been a non-political organization with the main emphasis being placed on support and well being of the families and the Association. Within the next two years, the officers and general membership adopted a logo, created the organizational by-laws and started recruiting members as representatives to lead the divisions and individual areas within the state. The membership meets through statewide meetings, division meetings and individual area gatherings. Members in individual divisions and areas pooled together their resources to provide police families with the physical and emotional support during times of illness, emergencies or other tragedies. They join together for celebrations, too. STATEMENT OF PURPOSE The objectives of the VSPAA are social, civic, and educational. The organization works in conjunction with the Virginia State Police Association (VSPA) in ensuring the best law enforcement agency in the state, as well as to work in all regards for the betterment of all sworn officers, their families, and citizens of the Commonwealth of Virginia. MISSION The mission of the VSPAA is to provide opportunities for its members to interact in social and civic functions. In addition, it is our responsibility to educate our families about issues that are unique to the police profession. FOCUS The primary purpose of the VSPAA is to serve as a support group for our members during daily life experiences, times of crisis, and job related stresses that affect each member of a police family. VSPAA INCOME The Auxiliary supports its financial needs through annual membership dues of $12 yearly due and payable on January first to the March VSPAA meeting, which is held at the same time and location as the VSPA Conference; and the profit from the sale of VSPAA merchandise, which is sold through the VSPA Store and VSP Academy.
