Law Enforcement Family Network (LEFN)

A Behind the Badge Foundation PROGRAM
More than fifteen years ago, Behind the Badge Foundation recognized a simple but powerful need: law enforcement families deserve a strong community of their own. From that vision, the Law Enforcement Family Network was born, creating meaningful connection, support, and understanding for the families who stand behind the badge.
