Wives Behind the Badge
Voice for the Law Enforcement Community
Wives Behind the Badge is an all-volunteer national non-profit organization providing much needed resources, emotional support and essential benefits to law enforcement families and agencies and serves in a positive manner as a voice for the law enforcement community, directly impacting public safety in the community.
Program Highlights are as follows:
Online Newsletter
Scholarships
Scholarships to children of active and retired law enforcement officers, as well as children of officers killed in the line of duty. We also plan to offer scholarships to the widows of fallen officers who now find it necessary to return to school and will enable them to financially take care of their families.
Kids For K-9's
Wives Behind the Badge has developed a program that makes it easy for kids of all ages to raise money to support law enforcement officers and their K-9's with their own Kids 4 Police K-9s™ Lemonade Stand in their community. For more information or to donate to Kids 4 Police K-9s™, please email k4k9@wivesbehindthebadge.org

Online Support Forum
Our online support forum is available to all wives, fiance's and girlfriends of a police officer, for friendship, support, and most of all fun! The support forum staff and members are a big family...a sisterhood and we are dedicated to helping one another face the daily struggles of being in a law enforcement relationship. Membership is always free.
H.A.L.O.S (Helping Aid Lost Officers) Condolence Program
In addition to the support and friendship we have to offer, we also are very proud of our H.A.L.O.S. (Helping Aid Lost Officers Survivors) condolence program. Our verified members are "Angels" to the wives of fallen officers - helping them cope with the loss of their officers - something we all fear.
In 2007 we expanded our HALOS program to include K-9's killed in the line of duty.
