San Diego POA Mission
The San Diego Police Officers Association (SDPOA) was incorporated in 1953 to assist San Diego police officers with issues related to wages, hours and working conditions. The SDPOA also aids members and their families in times of sickness, distress and death, and strives to improve social relations and welfare among the members.
President’s Message
The past several years have been a challenging time for law enforcement officers in large cities; San Diego is no different. For decades, our officers have faced challenges in which they do more with less and are underpaid compared to their counterparts throughout the state. Despite the challenges our officers face and due to their hard work, the City of San Diego remains one of the safest in the nation.
The San Diego Police Officers Association (SDPOA) ensures that officers receive due process, educates the community on the challenges we face and strives for fair compensation. Additionally, through our Foundation and Widows and Orphans Fund, we ensure that in the most difficult times, our members and their families are taken care of. The SDPOA serves as a partner to the community and prioritizes the importance of high-quality law enforcement.
