Houston Police Family Support Unit

the officer's income, and that of the family, are greatly reduced while the officer is on leave from the department. This is where our organization, the Houston Law Enforcement Officers Family Support Unit, may offer assistance. Since the officer is unable to receive a regular paycheck or pursue any overtime pay, or additional income from working a second job, his or her family is at risk of not meeting its needs. Our organization helps these officers by providing materials and support during those difficult times. Many of the officers and their family members need emotional as well as day-to-day support. The members of our organization are prepared and willing to step up and assist the family with some of their basic needs.
