This fall, the OACP invites our members to take a stroll down memory lane. For those who have been with us for several years, we hope to rekindle cherished memories. For our newer members, we hope you enjoy the journey—soon, these moments will become your own treasured memories.

As the OACP Scholarship/Community Action committee continuously looks for ways to engage and support the next generation of law enforcement leaders, this week we take a look back at a few of those who received college scholarships from the association, nearly 30 years ago, and how they are serving now.

Scholarship requirements and the student excerpts were taken from The Oregon Police Chief magazine published in August of 1995.

 
 

Jim went on to work for Stayton PD and then moved over to the Marion County Sheriffs office where he worked for over 20 years before retiring as Lieutenant in 2021.

Ryan's feet have been firmly planted with the OSP since his time as a cadet. After 30 years, Senior Trooper Niehus continues to serve the the state in Southern Oregon. 

Nicole moved directly from college to the Multnomah County Sheriffs Office.  Always wanting to learn more, Sheriff Morrisey-O'Donnell moved through the ranks & is now the first female sheriff in Mult. Co. 

Ken moved from Clackamas Co.  to Jackson County Sheriff's Office in 1998 working as Jail Officer in Charge. Deputy Landfair assisted the SWAT team on multiple occasions before retiring in 2022.

If you’re a newly appointed chief, interested in becoming a police chief, or a second-in-command who wants to find out how best to support your chief, this course is essential. This course will explore the skills, traits and qualities necessary for the new chief and/or those aspiring to be chief.

WHERE:  Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office 


If you're a small agency chief or high-level decision maker, you're invited to attend this year's conference. By "small agency," we mean agencies of 15 sworn officers or less and serving a population of 10,000 or less. This definition is intended to be inclusive, and not exclusive, of any agency small enough to have unique challenges because of their size and/or geographic location. Perhaps your agency is a bit larger than that; if so, this conference is for you too, if for no other reason than to share what you've learned.

When: November 5 - 7 2024

Where: Sunriver, Oregon

Registration opens at the end of September.
