WHAT WE DO.

​Our core objectives is to foster a continuing feeling of friendship and camaraderie among members, as well as to provide assistance to the disadvantaged both here in our local community and back in our native country of Jamaica.

So, in keeping with its mandate and vision, the association began a series of innovative programs, namely:

A scholarship program for Police Youth Club members in Jamaica, (later replaced by JEPAs Annual Jamaica Scholarship for high school students).


Adopt-a-Basic School for a day project.  This project began in 2011 at the Fair Prospect Basic School in the parish of Portland. The association provided Book Bags with educational supplies for all students, JEPA and the local Police Department assisted with the School lunch for a month, members spent the day reading to, mentoring and entertaining the students. All this was made possible by sponsorship from association members, Victoria Mutual Building Society, Air Jamaica Children’s Club, Grace Kennedy/Western Union and Jamaican Association of Dade Educators (JADE). 

These projects are on-going and continue to receive support from stake holders in the South Florida communities. The Jamaica Ex-Police Association of South Florida Inc. remains viable today and relies on the support of the public to help continue its objectives. JEPA will continue their support of local charities and NGOs.
