It is the overall mission of the Foundation to promote excellence and enhance the effectiveness of the Elizabethtown Police Department; and, in so doing, improve or enhance public safety in the City of Elizabethtown.

The Foundation encourages and supports the Elizabethtown Police Department in three main areas:

  1. Projects, research studies and equipment to improve police activities
  2. Education and training to strengthen the partnership between the police and the public

Through the Foundation’s added support of the Elizabethtown Police Department, we will help ensure that the City of Elizabethtown becomes Kentucky’s safest city.
