Current Benefits
Lobbyist
At the direction of the Board of Directors, the Association lobbyist works with the legislature and other government representatives on any legislative measure that would improve benefits for employees of the Colorado State Patrol. Efforts focus on salaries, insurance, retirement, and any other compensation related issues.
Death Benefit
An active member is covered by a Life Insurance Policy with Accidental Death and Dismemberment benefits and a stand-alone Accidental Death policy. If death is due to an illness, or cause other than an accident, the policy pays $20,000. If death is due to an accident, an additional $40,000 is paid ($20,000 from the Accidental part of the Life Policy and $20,000 from the stand-alone Accidental Death Policy). Dismemberment is covered under the Life Insurance Policy.
Fallen Officer's Fund
The Association, in conjunction with state law that provides free tuition for dependents of 1st responders killed in the line of duty at Colorado's colleges and universitys, will ensure that in addition to tuition, room, board, and books are also covered.
Hardship Fund
Members may request assistance from the Hardship Fund managed by the Colorado State Patrol Family Foundation (CSPFF). This fund has been used to assist members in such things as flooded homes, medical bills, payment of member dues during difficult times, and helping with phone bills. Apply for assistance from the Hardship Fund.
Scholarships
ACSPP Members and their dependents are eligible to apply for scholarships offered through the Colorado State Patrol Family Foundation on an annual basis. Find out more about the types of scholarships and when they are available.
