Indiana C.O.P.S. operates as a
peer support network for survivors of line-of-duty death
according to federal criteria. Our long-term goals are many. Our
primary goal is to be there for all survivors on a day-to-day
basis, assisting them with anything they need.
Indiana Concerns of Police
Survivors, provides resources to assist in the rebuilding of the
lives of surviving families of law enforcement officers killed
in the line of duty as determined by Federal criteria.
Furthermore, COPS provides training to law enforcement agencies
on survivor victimization issues and educates the public of the
need to support the law enforcement profession and its
survivors.
Each year, between 140 and 160
officers are killed in the line of duty and their families and
co-workers are left to cope with the tragic loss. COPS provides
resources to help them rebuild their shattered lives. Over 300
Indiana Police Officers have been killed in the line of duty,
and their sacrifices will never be forgotten.
