Become A Member

We believe that people are the most important asset to our organization. Membership consists of both active and retired members of the Houston Police Department, including civilian support staff. Every member is valued and everyone has an equal voice within our organization. In order to keep AAPOL strong we encourge members to get actively involved in AAPOL sponsored activities and programs.

As an AAPOL member, you enjoy all the benefits of membership. We offer promotional exam assistance, legal services, opportunities to attend police related conferences and meetings, as well as offering various training opportunities. As a member, you can attend AAPOL sponsored social activities and plan or participate in AAPOL fundraising activities. More importantly, as dues paying member you have an opportunity to actively assist in shaping department policy in order to make HPD one of the best police agencies in the United States. As an active member of AAPOL you can make your voice heard!

There is strength in numbers and AAPOL is always looking for new members who have a strong work ethic, are involved, motivated, proactive, and willing to take the responsibility and initiative to make positive change. We are looking for those who wish to serve the police department with pride and integrity, while also serving as an ambassador to our greater community. If this sounds like you, please join us!Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
