What is the Associate Program?
The program is a civilian affiliate of the Fraternal
Order of Police, Howard County Sheriff’s Lodge. It’s members are
individuals and families of law enforcement officers, responsible and
respected business persons, professional men and women, and citizens from
all walks of life – people willing to devote a portion of their time and
efforts toward assisting the Howard County Sheriff’s Lodge.
The Associate Program is a non-partisan without
regard to race, creed, color, or religious beliefs. The participants’
interests revolve around law enforcement and the men and women that have
dedicated their lives to the protection of citizens. Associate members
support programs, charitable causes, and legislation of the Howard County
Sheriff’s Lodge as well as all law enforcement efforts.
