ABOUT US
Welcome to the Fraternal Order of Police Lodge #1 located in Wilmington, Delaware.
The FOP was first introduced in Delaware on September 20, 1965 with the formation of Wilmington Lodge #1. The Delaware State Lodge was established somewhat later, in 1967. Lodge #1 represents over 700 sworn and retired law enforcement officers in the first state.
Our lodge proudly represents officers from the Wilmington Police Department, Elsmere Bureau of Police, New Castle City Police Department, Newport Police Department and the Middletown Police Department.
The Fraternal Order of Police is the world's largest organization of sworn law enforcement officers, with more than 324,000 members in more than 2,100 lodges. We are the voice of those who dedicate their lives to protecting and serving our communities. We are committed to improving the working conditions of law enforcement officers and the safety of those we serve through education, legislation, information, community involvement, and employee representation. No one knows the dangers and the difficulties faced by today's police officers better than another officer, and no one knows police officers better than the FOP.
