Our Mission
The mission of the New Orleans Police & Justice Foundation is to make New Orleans a safer place in which to live, work and visit. We accomplish this by promoting excellence in policing, efficiency in criminal justice and positive community engagement.
Our Focus
Officers
- The Tragedy Fund, administered by NOPJF, has provided over $140,000 to seriously injured officers and their families in their time of need.
- NOPJF’s Tuition Assistance Program offsets the cost of college for NOPD employees.
- From personal protective gear to horses and canines, NOPJF is filling gaps by providing officers with the equipment and supplies they need to keep us safe.
Community
- New Orleans citizens are helping NOPD identify suspects and solve crimes by registering more than 4,000 private security cameras through NOPJF’s SafeCamNOLA.com.
- NOPJF’s groundbreaking Adopt-a-Block initiative is helping residents install private security cameras in high crime hot spots.
Department
- NOPJF’s JoinNOPD.org Campaign is recruiting the next generation of police officers.
- NOPJF’s OPISIS Technology initiative makes NOPD more efficient and effective by providing real time data and cutting edge crime analysis software.
- NOPJF’s training investments bring world-class leadership development courses and law enforcement best practices to NOPD officers.
