Coalition of Concerned Police and Fire Fighters

The Coalition of Concerned Police and Fire Fighters was established after members of the Concerned American Police Officers (CAPO – Camden, NJ) and the Concerned Union Fire Fighters (CUFF – Camden, NJ) recognized that both the Police and Fire Departments were plagued by inappropriate and unlawful agendas.

After being plagued by divisive litigation and shallow complaints of biased testing procedures in both departments, CAPO and CUFF have agreed to work in concert to eradicate discriminatory practices and the acceptance of questionable resolutions.

We realize that this issue extends beyond the borders of Camden, New Jersey. As a result, we encourage our fellow public servants to contact us if your agency also employs problematic hiring and promotional procedures. The Coalition of Concerned Police and Fire Fighters are dedicated to eliminating the divisive emphasis on race not only in New Jersey but the entire United States. Regardless of location, we will lend our assistance in helping others establish similar organizations that are devoted to the expulsion of race based quotas and hiring and promotional procedures that are based on administration goals and not merit.
