Over the next few weeks we will be remembering them in many ways through out this State and Nation as they gave the ultimate sacrifice, their life in protecting us all. We will never forget the fallen officers remembered this year in Washington DC:

As a Chapter of Concern of Police Survivors we represent over 1,000 families of Fallen Officers and we will ALWAYS remember them in our thoughts and prayers.
This year, we have over 120 members and their families attending National Police Week in Washington DC in support of our families and to remember our Officers.
It is with pride that we have the opportunity in supporting our families and National COPS, that we as a Chapter, are donating over $36,000.00 this year to assist with rebuilding the shattered lives of our survivors. This money will be used to directly impact Illinois Survivors on a national level, and we all should be proud at what our gracious donors have allowed us to assist in!
