Our Purpose
• To promote an official and mutual friendship and cooperation between Special Police, Police Officers, NYS Peace Officers and Security Guards
Buffalo Special Officers pay for their own training and equipment and work at the pleasure and direction of the Buffalo Police Commissioner.
The Buffalo City Charter, in 1927, recognized the Buffalo Special Police Officers. Since that time, this volunteer group of concerned citizens has dedicated their own time and resources to helping keep Buffalo a safe place.
• To promote good-will among the membership.
• To serve as a means of exchanging information among member police associations on matters of common interest.
• To promote a higher standard among the membership, through a commitment to development in the areas of special police and security training, and safe gun handling for private citizens.
• To give aid and assistance to police officers and police associations wherever possible.
To continue to recruit new members who will actively participate in BSPBA activities for the improvement of our industry standard.
