The Central Oregon Police Chaplaincy is a Public Benefit non-profit organization with a volunteer board of members from the community, law enforcement agencies, emergency services agencies, clergy, and professionals that meet monthly to assist the chaplains in accomplishing ministry for our law enforcement and emergency services families in Central Oregon.

We have by-laws to guide and direct us to provide orderly and consistent ministry. They provide an opportunity for direction and accountability for this ministry and the community served. Presently we have two staff chaplains and several volunteer chaplains.
