For more than three decades, the Correctional Peace Officers Foundation has brought the corrections community together for one sacred purpose: to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice and to stand beside the families left behind.

Since 1990, CPOF has hosted PROJECT 2000, an annual four-day gathering dedicated to recognizing correctional officers who lost their lives in the line of duty during the preceding year. PROJECT is more than an event — it is a promise that their service will never be forgotten and that their families will never stand alone.
