About the Former Troopers Association

The Mission of the Association of Former New Jersey State Troopers, Inc., is to continue the camaraderie of retired Jersey Troopers while offering the combined knowledge, experience, and moral support of its members to former Troopers and the New Jersey State Police. Since its early days, the Association has grown to become an advocate for its members and survivors, seeking to preserve and improve benefits in an everchanging economy. It has continued to support the State Police, not only in carrying out its mission in the law enforcement field, but also to maintain that tradition of "State Police Family," by supporting the many social functions that are intended to reinforce that spirit. The Association maintains the belief that "Once a Trooper, Always a Trooper" is paramount, and although retired or separated from State Police service, we are all still a part of "The Outfit."
