Honoring Our Fallen

Minimizing the financial burdens often placed on the dedicated members of the El Monte Police Department who experience catastrophic circumstances, including assisting the families of officers killed in the line of duty.

Youth and TORCH Program

The EMPOF understands that many of our officers grow up here and join the department. Therefore, we have created a fund that allows high school youth to learn about police work first hand.

The El Monte police Department is dedicated to at risk youth intervention. Our TORCH program (Teaching, Obedience, Respect, Courage and Honor).

Providing financial assistance

After covering personnel costs, there is little left in any police department’s budget for:

  • Community outreach programs
  • Innovations in policing
  • New technology
  • Critical training
  • Safety equipment
  • Officer wellness program
