Mission

Our mission is to promote Bulgarian honor, bravery, integrity, culture and spirit. To strengthen the friendship and cooperation between its members and the public.

Community

  As you already know, all of us are full-time police officers, sheriffs, state troopers and federal officers/agents. Many times, our line of duty requires us to serve midnight shifts and sometimes double shifts in emergency situations.

   In addition, some of us still serve in the military, as reservists.

Bulgarian American Police Association

However, we find the time and use our money to volunteer and help within the Bulgarian community. We visit Bulgarian schools and help Bulgarians living in the U.S. on many different levels.
