"In 1972, the Nevada Highway Patrol Association was formed. Our founding members formed the Association to protect and advocate for the rights and working conditions of Nevada State Troopers. Now known as the Nevada Police Union, we currently represent both sworn and non-sworn members of the State Police, University Police, Department of Wildlife, State Parks, and the Department of Agriculture. The Nevada Police Union is more than just a labor union. It is a fraternal organization whose mission is to improve the lives of our members through advocacy, representation, and charitable activities. The NPU works to advance legislation and policies that improve policing in Nevada, which benefits all residents and visitors to our state. As the largest state level law enforcement union, we realize the importance of our role in advocating for excellence in policing. We look to partner with all community leaders to help make Nevada a safe and prosperous place to call home."
