Who we are
Who We Are?
Established in 1972, the Florida Police Benevolent Association, Inc. (PBA) is a politically proactive labor organization that represents law enforcement officers in negotiations for wages, benefits and terms of their employment. We give law enforcement officers a voice in the day-to-day affairs of their agencies and we fight to win them better pay, benefits and working conditions.
Our goal is to provide law enforcement officers with a strong and effective voice before legislative and local government bodies.
Times have changed since 1972, but Florida PBA continues to furnish the best, most effective representation possible.
United we can set and accomplish even greater goals!

What organization can you turn to with the size, political strength and financial resources to be “The Voice of Florida’s Law Enforcement”?
